Of all the Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gyms that are closer to my home. I drive 45 minutes, one way, for an opportunity to not only be inspired but to inspire. To laugh, sweat, push my limits and learn one of the best martial arts with people I can now call... family.

Excellent school, amazing kids program, instructors are very disciplined, knowledgable & patient, yet friendly and tough. You'd be hard pressed to find a well-balanced school like this. My 9yr old has been attending for a bit over a year now. He loves it. I'm thoroughly impressed.

Call me biased but i've been training for over 13 years and been to many schools in my life and I can't say enough good things about this place. Great instructors, quality students, engaging atmosphere for all levels of skill and commitment without politics or possessive cult-like behavior.

World Class Brazilian Jiu Jitsu- Professor Joe Scarola is a generous instructor. His program can make you the best version of you that you can be. If you think you can get Your Brazilian Jiu Jitsu anywhere not so. There are a few places on Long Island to get this type of skill level in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I highly recommend Gracie Barra Long Island.
