Reach your full potential with
Gracie Barra
New Westminster Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu!

Professor Raz is hands down one of the best Bjj coaches out there!! I've been on and off the mats for over ten years and in that time I'm grateful to have had the chance to train under Raz. His dedication to his students, mixed with his passion for the sport translates directly into his teachings. Whether you are seasoned or new to the sport, Raz's attention to detail and welcoming environment will make sure you walk away with something new learned and a positive experience! If you want to learn from one of the best around, Professor Raz is the man to go see!!

Excellent instruction, clean, and a safe training environment.

Professor Raz has been with me since day 1 of my Jiu Jitsu journey, through injuries, weird questions, and competitions. He is dedicated to his students and will always be there to help those who want it. He emulates the hard work and focus that he expects in his students, and cultivates a culture of kindness and respect. A fantastic coach and attentive professor, he makes BJJ accessible and understandable for the newest white belts, and comprehensive and continually challenging for all the levels up. He focuses on the concepts and reasons behind and for each movement. This is crucial as it empowers students to cultivate their own personal style of BJJ that fits with their body type and who they are, while always remaining technically flawless. He is all about Jiu Jitsu as a life long endeavour and art form, rather than a quick fix exercise routine. It's been an inspiring year of training under him, and I know I will be learning techniques and skills from Professor Raz for life.

A Great place to learn self discipline, technical ability and endurance. I highly recommend this school! Never too young or too old to start Jiu-Jitsu

My son Ayden has recently joined Gracie Barra and is loving the program. He comes home from each class and explains what he has learned each day.
The instructors are very respectful and encouraging. Their patience and calm guidance have made my son relaxed and ready to learn.
Recently they have sent each student home with a pink bracelet representing their anti bullying program. Each student was given 5 bracelets to give out to his friends. Ayden did this immediately the next morning and some of his friends have been wearing them ever since. The message on it is “Be a buddy not a bully” which I think resonates with us all.
Thank you Raz, Walt and Jason for making my sons introduction to your program a positive and enriching experience. We are looking forward to long relationship.
