After the three trial lessons, I was convinced that this was the Jiu-jitsu gym I wanted my son to train at. Shout out to Mr. Oliver for having excellent patience and stellar teaching ability.After finding out I was being sent out of the area however, I went to the front desk not expecting much. Shirlane and Mary however, were fantastic. They not only worked with me, they even showed me that there was an option to purchase gently used gis instead of investing in a brand new gi, when I’m not going to be here much longer.Instead of writing me off because I wasn’t going to be in the area long, they understood my situation, and exceeded expectations. Well done Gracie Barra Meridian, your people/leadership are the example of customer service done right.

We take our daughter to this specific Gracie Barra and they are fabulous. At first it could be considered under whelming however there is such a sense of unity from day 1. You get a free week to try it out and right off the bat they suit you up in a white Gi so you match the class. The Coaches/Professor go out of their way to ensure everyone understands what they are doing even if it means hopping down to the mat to show them how or do it with them. If there's an issue whether it be behavioral or kids acting out, they get down to the kids' level and patiently talk to them and explain why it's not okay and how it's affecting everyone. If that doesn't work then they do sit out so class is never held up. It is very family oriented and I can not say enough great things about them. My daughter loves being here and adores all the main Coaches she has worked with although Faby is definitely her favorite ❤
