Fundamentals of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

To improve at anything you must first learn the basics. Our Fundamentals program is designed to introduce the techniques and concepts of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to our students in a controlled environment. 

Gracie Barra has developed an innovated program for beginners to safely and effectively learn and practice jiu-jitsu. This system takes students through a progression of positions, movements and techniques, with each building on the previous one. Structured drills and controlled sparring help our students learn and progress quickly in a safe setting.

ADVANCED BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU

Upon completing the minimum requirements of the Fundamentals Program, students will have a solid grasp on the self defense side of jiu-jitsu. At this point they can begin participating in the Advanced Adult Program. In this program students will continue to develop the basic skills they've learned while being introduced to new competition techniques and strategies.

Training sessions include a guided warm-up followed by technical instruction by one of our experienced black belt instructors. After the technical drilling portion of class, students are paired for timed grappling rounds.

NO-GI BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU

No-Gi is a style of Jiu-Jitsu which has gained popularity through the growth of mixed martial arts. A major difference in styles is the absence of the traditional BJJ uniform. Instead, a tshirt, lycra rashguard, and board shorts are use for training. The lack of material can make it difficult to control slippery opponent. Many of the gi dependent grips have to be modified in order to finish submission holds.

Traditional gi jiu-jitsu is often slower paced and methodical where no-gi tends to be explosive and faster paced. it is highly recommended for students to have a solid foundation in gi jiu-jitsu before jumping into no-gi classes.

I've been training at Gracie Barra North Orlando with my husband since Feb 2018. Starting jiujitsu here has been one of my best life decisions ever made. Aside from getting a great workout in, the community of amazing professors and other students is invaluable. Whether it is you've ever met them or not, students are always inviting and friendly. I've met my closest friends from training here. The professors are super passionate and are always willing to help when you ask questions after the class. It's such a welcoming community filled with positive vibes. Also, they have A/C - super important in Florida. :D Whether you want to be a weekend warrior or a competitive athlete, there is always a place for you here. I highly recommend this academy!

Great place to train! My jiu jitsu training began in 2006 and has taken me to several schools around the country. GB North Orlando is now my training home, and I love it. It more than delivers on what’s important to me:(1). Live To Train Another Day: none of the other stuff matters if you’re consistently getting injured and off the mat. The instructors at GB North Orlando have created a great team culture that folks of all ages and levels will enjoy.(2). Growth and Development: the training is top notch—I’m always getting better.(3). A Fun, Hard Workout: I never leave without a smile on my face and a few pounds of sweat in my gi (even though the school is air conditioned—a key advantage for a school in FL!).If you’re in Central FL and looking for a place to train, you should definitely check out GB North Orlando

Super proud to be affiliated with GB North Orlando. My two sons (ages 7 and 9) began their Jiu Jitsu journey a little over a year ago. Professor "Gutty" and Professor Lawrence, along with the rest of their team, do an absolutely incredible job with the kids program. It is a kind, loving, and fun, but disciplined environment... a perfect balance for establishing a foundation in this life-long endeavor.The adult program is also very well developed, where people of all levels are welcomed. Students and professors/coaches alike share openly their enthusiasm for training and growing together... built on mutual respect.Culture matters... and these guys walk the walk.

I met Professor Lawrence today and I was blown away by how welcoming and amazing he and the entire academy are. It was also really awesome as had a friend with me that had no impression of any martial arts and she was super excited as well. You will be hard pressed to find a better place never mind value for your money. The all inclusive atmosphere at the best price I’ve ever seen in my all years. I can’t wait to get started there and I’m blessed to be joining. Thank you Professor 🥋🙏🤝

Been training with Gracie Barra North Orlando since May of 2011 and gotta say it's been one of the greatest experiences of my life. Jiu jitsu is just an incredible martial art that I believe everyone should learn. The people here are just absolutely amazing, friendly, and helpful. Professor Gutty is a world champion and is extremely passionate. The facility is great, 2 huge areas downstairs and upstairs - a weight room, and a conditioning room. Check it out, you will not regret it.

I’ve been training here consistently for over 3.5 years, and it’s my absolute favorite activity I’ve ever done. I love jiu-jitsu, but it’s the people (students and teachers) and the environment here that really makes me want to train everyday. I’ve visited other schools, but I have not yet seen a more diverse and balanced group. There are all walks of life of all ages. There is a wide spectrum of training, where you have people that train occasionally just for fun to people that just do it for the exercise to world champion, competition athletes. There is a niche for everyone.

About The City

About Winter Park, FL

Winter Park is a city in Orange County, Florida, United States. The population was 30,825 according to the 2019 census population estimate. It is part of the Orlando–Kissimmee–Sanford, Florida Metropolitan Statistical Area. Winter Park was founded as a resort community by northern business magnates in the late 19th and early 20th centuries (Founded on July 4, 1881 – Tales of Winter Park). Its main street, called Park Avenue, is located in the middle of town. It includes civic buildings, retail, art galleries, a private liberal arts college (Rollins College), museums, a park, a train station, a golf course country club, a historic cemetery, and a beach and boat launch. == History == The Winter Park area's first human residents were migrant Muscogee people who had earlier intermingled with the Choctaw and other indigenous people. In a process of ethnogenesis, the Native Americans formed a new culture which they called "Seminole", a derivative of the Mvskoke' (a Creek language) word simano-li, an adaptation of the Spanish cimarrón which means "wild" (in their case, "wild men"), or "runaway" [men]. The site was first inhabited by Europeans in 1858, when David Mizell Jr. bought an 8-acre (32,000 m2) homestead between Lakes Virginia, Mizell, and Berry.
