About Gracie Barra Zetland

Gracie Barra Zetland brings one of the most recognised names in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to Sydney's inner east, operating from a purpose-built 220 square metre academy inside the East Village precinct. The school follows the globally consistent Gracie Barra curriculum, giving members a structured pathway from their very first class through to advanced and expert levels under an internationally backed system.

The academy is built around the idea that Jiu-Jitsu is for everyone. Dedicated programs separate beginners, experienced grapplers, women, and children, so newcomers train in a supportive setting while seasoned students push their technical and competitive edge. The emphasis is on safe, age-appropriate instruction and a respectful, community-minded culture rather than ego.

Families in Zetland and the surrounding suburbs are a core part of the membership, with kids classes designed to build confidence, discipline, and coordination alongside self-defence skills. Whether the goal is fitness, self-defence, competition, or simply a welcoming place to learn, the academy positions itself as a friendly, professional home for the gentle art.
