Gracie Humaita is one of the most respected names in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the academy of Grandmaster Helio Gracie and his sons. In Gilbert, we’re proud to train and promote under that banner, teaching the same principles of leverage, patience, and technique that built the art.
Our academy is led by instructors who live the philosophy of Honor, Family, and Legacy in every class.

What Our Members Say
Real Reviews From Our Gilbert Family
Me, my son and daughter have been training here for over 3 years. The instructors have the exact attitude you would want your children around. Coach Quan has the highest focus on teaching his students how to be good people on and off the mat. I would highly recommend coming down to experience the instructors and the atmosphere of the classes and family around the students. I couldn’t recommend it more!!
We have been working with Quan for almost 2 years doing private lessons for BJJ and Muay Thai and Quan has been incredible with his vast experience and knowledge. We also love the culture of this gym and the amazing athletes who are part of it.
My son loves jujitsu. We started it when he was in kindergarten to help him with self confidence and respect. When we went to class Coach Quan didn’t just teach him jujitsu, he taught him virtues on how to be a good person. My son just did his second competition and I couldn’t have been more proud. It takes a village and I am thankful to have Coach Quan and Next Level be a part of my village. We highly recommend Next Level and Coach Quan!!!
