Our signature kids program

Coaches Stephanie and Eduardo, both trained in child psychology, built an anti-bullying program that blends Jiu-Jitsu with proven psychological techniques.

  • Stands up to bullies, calmly

    Kids learn posture, boundaries and the right words first, so they can handle conflict without throwing a punch.

  • Listens better at home and at school

    Every class runs on respect: bow in, eyes on the coach, wait your turn. That habit follows them home.

  • Real confidence in weeks, not years

    Small wins in every class add up fast. Shy kids start raising their hand, on the mat and off it.

Our daughter has been doing Jujitsu with GB Lindale for over six months and has improved her discipline, resilience, strength and patience on and off the mat. The community of parents and students here are incredible. I have felt so welcomed that I joined 2 months ago and it's a real game changer.

Kaitlin AdkinsParent & student

Was visiting family in Lindale and was invited to take part in the Women's class while I was there — it was an absolute blast! Stephanie was a great instructor and took time to guide me through each movement and was so encouraging! I'll definitely be back when I visit again.

Love the whole vibe and atmosphere of this place! They truly make you feel like family and my daughter loves going to class and other events too!

Alisha HobbsParent

Great place for the whole family from kids to adults. My daughter and I have both been going here for about 6 months. Amazing knowledge of BJJ and self defense in a welcoming environment. If you're looking for a place to workout with a great supportive environment this is the place.

Bryan CaseyParent & student

My husband and my son are learning Jiu Jitsu at the Gracie Barra gym in Lindale. They are both loving the professor and coaches and each taking away different things. Everyone is so friendly from the staff, to the other parents, and kids. They have created a great community atmosphere.

Scotti SmothermonParent

GB Lindale ROCKS!!!! The professor, the staff, the members are basically FAMILY! Different cultures, different backgrounds all joining to learn SKILLS, to PERSEVERE and to find a better self in you by the end of class.

Gracie Barra Lindale has made Jiu Jitsu more than just a sport. They have become a community of friends and mentors. It is everything a kid should have while doing athletics. Support, encouragement, discipline, and friendship.
