Gracie Barra New Westminster
BJJ for the Bold at Every Age
At Gracie Barra New Westminster, we champion a unique Brazilian jiu-jitsu philosophy:
“Fortifying the spirit of those who may not feel strong, giving them the tools to confidently tackle life’s hurdles.”
Our community is a tapestry of life, woven from families, esteemed professionals like doctors, university professors, and dedicated law enforcement officers. “Empowering the courageous, not just the strong” – that’s the spirit that fuels our New Westminster BJJ dojo.
A Gathering Place for Growth & Connection
We’re more than a Brazilian jiu-jitsu school; we’re a hub where wisdom meets vigor. Proudly home to the Lower Mainland’s largest group of martial artists over age 40 and the most police officers on the mats, our martial arts school stands as a testament to the ageless spirit of BJJ.
Inclusive Empowerment on the Mat
Our doors are open to all, offering a safe space where working professionals and families alike can shed their daily roles and don the Brazilian jiu-jitsu uniform of equality and empowerment.
Celebrating Strength in Numbers & Spirit
Join the ranks of those who find strength not just in their professions but in their passion for Brazilian jiu-jitsu. At Gracie Barra New Westminster, discover your untapped potential, supported by a community that’s as diverse as it is dedicated.
