Gracie Barra Hialeah Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Gracie Barra Hialeah Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is part of the global Gracie Barra network founded by Master Carlos Gracie Jr., who shaped his teaching under the guidance of his father Carlos Gracie Sr., Helio Gracie, and Rolls Gracie. The academy in Hialeah follows this tradition, with a local team led by Professor Gleibe Andrade, a black belt recognized for his dedication on and off the mats. Professor Gleibe and his coaching staff emphasize respect, discipline, and personal growth, drawing on the Gracie family philosophy that has influenced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for generations. The class structure at Gracie Barra Hialeah is built around the established Gracie Barra curriculum, with programs for kids, adults, and women. Young students benefit from a strong focus on anti-bullying, confidence, and teamwork, with coaches guiding them through both the technical and character-building aspects of jiu-jitsu. Adult classes offer opportunities to develop fundamental and advanced skills in the gi, following the traditional style of the Gracie Barra system. Women’s jiu-jitsu classes provide a dedicated space for female students to train and learn self-defense. The academy also schedules open mat sessions for adults, welcoming visitors and drop-ins. Located in a wheelchair-accessible facility on W 49th Street, the gym serves families from across Hialeah. The flexible class schedule makes it possible for both children and adults to train regularly, and the coaching team is known for supporting students at every stage of their progression. Gracie Barra Hialeah maintains the values and lineage of the Gracie family while fostering a training environment where students of all backgrounds can develop their skills and confidence.
