GB BJJ is for anyone who wants to learn how to defend him or herself in combat.

You will learn how to think through problems more constructively than before, on and off the mats.

At GB, you are a part of an extended family. You will join a team that will support you in your quest for self-improvement. Training the techniques and participating in live training sessions, with your partners and coaches, will give you an arsenal of weapons at your disposal whenever you should need them. The more you train, the more you will arm yourself with knowledge and skills to fight all your battles in life like a black belt.

We at GB believe that if everyone trained GB BJJ, the world would be a better place…

a quick testimonial:
I first came into the Gracie Barra Glasgow School to try and get a bit fitter and to learn a martial art, The gym is filled with great equipment, The coaching is by far the best in all of scotland, when training with head coach Ricky Gillon you get a real sense that the thing that matters the most to him is that you improve. I would recommend the gym to anyone I know, there’s a real feeling of family you won’t find in any other gym.
