From the reviews
From the moment I walked through the doors of Gracie Barra Kissimmee, I knew I had found something truly special. The energy here is unreal — welcoming, empowering, and filled with a sense of community that you just don’t find everywhere.
The environment is uplifting an contagious. Alot of high level Black Belts and Brown Belts to learn from. The mat space is huge, and there's a ton of people to train with. (Main Coach)Igor Andrade 6th degree is also just one stripe away from coral belt.
Wow my first time ever trying Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was amazing. I walked into a true safe-space when I entered Gracie Barra. The staff was so professional and explained everything thoroughly, they were very patient with helping me learn and get adjusted before diving into it.
Great gym, very friendly staff. Dropped in while competing for pan ams, the drop in fee was very reasonable, the class was good, everyone was very friendly and respectful. Good place to stop by if you happen to be in town.
New to muay thai? Start at Gracie Barra Kissimmee
Gracie Barra Kissimmee comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners program is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale the conditioning to you. Second, you won't be thrown into sparring — reputable gyms build fundamentals (stance, footwork, and the basic strikes of the "art of eight limbs") for weeks before any contact, and sparring stays optional. Third, all levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first muay thai class at Gracie Barra Kissimmee
Nervous about walking into a muay thai gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics on pads and bags — not fighting. Rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: shorts or athletic wear and a t-shirt; you'll train barefoot on the mats. What to bring: water and hand wraps if you have them — many gyms lend gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves, wraps, a mouthguard, and shin guards. Sparring is optional and comes later, once your fundamentals are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
