Last year I was promoted to the rank of the blue belt under Professor Pedro Araujo. One of the significant accomplishments in my life and great honor, as it proves that consistent effort and dedication lead to results. Those gallons of sweat left on the mats make us better and build out character and mental strength!
Gracie Barra Heights is a really great academy. Professors Pedro Araujo and Edgard Bortoletto are doing a really outstanding job of not just creating a BJJ school, but building an extended family of people united by the common goal - the goal of becoming better versions of themselves through the power of jiu jitsu.
Your trial class is free - you have nothing to loose. Do yourself a favor - just come and the only regret you are going to have: that you didn't come here sooner!

I love this place, Professor Pedro is an incredible instructor. I learn at a fast pace working with him and he is extremely detailed. The facility is beautiful and super clean! I highly recommend Gracie Barra Heights!

Instructor and other students were welcoming and friendly. Made me feel as I was a member of the team even though I was a stranger passing through. Very glad I stopped in and would highly recommend as a nice place to train. Thanks again.

I had a great time on my visit to Gracie Barra heights. I was in town on business and dropped in to get some mat time. The team welcomed me in and I actually got to spend an hour with professor Edgard one on one. Again, excellent instruction from Gracie Barra and feels like family no matter where you go.

This training facility is an absolute hidden gem. It is full of disciplined practitioners and highly awarded instructors. Not only is Professor Pedro Araujo a 4 time world champion, he is a master of the art of Gracie Barra BJJ, which makes him a highly effective teacher. He makes complex techniques and skills simple by breaking them down and sharing the key actions. Other things that are great about this place are the cleanliness, showers, and community. Everyone is supportive and friendly despite what you may think of a gym like this. I highly encourage anyone at any level to come give this place a try.

My son has been going to Gracie Barra since it opened. We were looking for a sport that my 11 yr old son would actually want to partake in as we had tried other sports like football and baseball and he never really took a liking to. When he first started, he was not used to a lot of physical activity and his self confidence was not the best. At times he really had to push himself to finish the classes and would doubt whether he could keep doing the sport. Professor Pedro always encouraged him, kept pushing him to do more and reassured him that he could do the class and that it would get better. Within 6 months, his mindset had completely changed, had more energy and was excited to see that his whole physique had changed. He walks around with a self confidence that he had never had. It has now been 2 1/2 years, my kid is now 14, and in the adult classes. He makes sure to go to as many classes he can, has made great friends and has learned so much from Professor Pedro who he truly respects and admires. He is an instructor that has a lot of patience, is wonderful with kids and is truly passionate about what he does.

My family and I have been attending This school since last year. The instructors take great pride in their approach to instruction and make it a priority to get feedback from students. Great place with friendly people and great instruction. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a top tier academy.

Gb Heights has been an amazing experience, Professor Araujo is very knowledgeable and the community is very welcoming and a great place to learn. I am three months into this journey and very happy with my choice of coming to study under Professor Araujo.

I only spent 2 months here, had to move due to work but this academy is awesome. Professor Pedro is a great teacher and super technical I wish I could continue. Every academy I go to now is measured up to the standard of GB Heights.

I have been coming here for a month and absolutely love it. The hardest part was walking in the first day, after that I look forward to the next class even if my body isn't! Prof Araujo is accomplished and a great teacher. If you are thinking you may want to give BJJ a try but are too overweight/busy/insert excuse, don't think about it, just come in. I walked in with a nice sized beer gut and am steadily losing weight every week.

I started bjj and had been training for about 3 months, but my game stopped improving. I attended a seminar here and, after witnessing the quality of instruction, signed up the next day. I have been steadily improving ever since my first day. Prof Araujo will definitely take your game to the next level!
Awesome community in the gym as well.

I'm so glad to find an instructor, Professor Pedro Araujo, who has " been there and done that" with his extensive and successful competition experience to guide and train me. Whether you are coming to get into shape, for self defense, or are a die hard competitor, you are gonna find superb facilities (one of the best if not THE best in the Houston area with shock absorbing flooring, showers, towel service, laundry service,) world class instruction, and coaching. The coaching staff is very friendly and professional, and they work very hard to make sure you get the most out of your experience here!

I signed up three weeks ago and have the utmost respect with gratitude to the coaches. The service and attention to better self-esteem, defense, and getting fit has improved tremendously. I can not wait to see the results in 90 days. The coaches show determination and push you to your full potential - regardless of age/size/sex. It is all about YOU! Thank you Gracie Barra Heights!
