Claim this gymGracie Barra Pymble serves Sydney’s North Shore with a structured approach to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, led by a team of experienced instructors with deep roots in the Gracie Barra lineage. Head instructor Karl Salva, a first-degree black belt, began his journey under Marcio Lemos at Gracie Barra Hornsby and has guided the Pymble academy since 2019. The teaching team includes Marcio Lemos (third-degree black belt), Michelle Salva (black belt and accomplished international competitor), and several dedicated blue belt coaches, all holding Gracie Barra Instructor Certification, First Aid, and Working With Children accreditation. The academy’s philosophy centres on technical excellence, mutual respect, and consistent progression, with a strong focus on personal development and community values. The class structure at Gracie Barra Pymble is built around Gracie Barra’s well-established curriculum. Beginners start with the GB1 Fundamentals Program, which introduces core techniques and self-defence. More experienced students move into the GB2 Advanced Gi classes, open to three-stripe white belts and above, where the training intensity and technical complexity increase. No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu is also offered, blending fundamental and advanced techniques with live positional sparring. The academy runs a robust kids’ program (GBK), designed to foster confidence and discipline through age-appropriate classes, as well as a dedicated Women’s Only class (GBF) that provides a supportive entry point for women into the sport. Classes run Monday to Friday from 10 am to 9 pm, with Saturday sessions in the morning. The facility features over 200 square metres of mat space, modern amenities, and daily cleaning to maintain a safe training environment. Gracie Barra Pymble also holds annual free women’s self-defence and kids’ anti-bullying seminars, reflecting its commitment to the local community. Uniforms and apparel are available at reception, and while parking is limited under the building, street parking is available nearby.
