Posted on Google Patricia SitlerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve been very happy with this location! Our son begged to try it out after seeing it open up (4 at the time). The staff was incredibly patient with him when he refused to get on the mat for nearly a month, but they recognized that he was putting in effort to keep moving closer into the instructors over the course of the month. Now, he loves going as much as possible! Effort has to be put in by both the parents/caregivers and the coaches. The coaches are firm and want the kids to understand discipline and respect. They also try to teach the kids to have some grit and not whine and cry over every bump and minor things. For the comment previous saying that the staff isn’t empathetic—that’s not really true. They’re trying to teach the kids to stay strong against their opponent and not in a bad and malicious way. We’re happy with how the staff will change up partners because it helps them learn how to use their techniques and movements on different people that are close to their size. Kids can’t always get the same partner because you’re not always going to have the same kids each day. Also, the kids room was closed probably because many parents didn’t watch their children and were more destructive than respectful to the room because I’ve seen parents just let their kids do what they want and do nothing to help manage the behavior. As for military protections mentioned before in a previous review, I’m pretty sure that the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA) really only applies for early termination and not to freeze/pause a contract and its payments that were entered into prior to signing the contract. If SCRA does apply for a freeze/pause, then the military member should provide clearly written documentation with the military orders and SCRA protection to the facility and if needed then get a written letter from the USAF JA office at Hill AFB.Posted on Google CarolTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve had such an amazing experience at Gracie Barra Layton! From the very beginning, my daughter felt welcomed and excited to be there, which says so much about the environment they’ve created. She looks forward to every class and has truly fallen in love with jiu-jitsu. A huge part of that is because of Professor Mat. He is incredible with the kids he's very patient, encouraging, and really knows how to connect with them while still teaching discipline and respect. You can tell he genuinely cares about each student. As well as the amazing coaches helping him, It’s been so special watching my daughter build confidence, learn new skills, and have so much fun at the same time. We’re beyond grateful to be part of this community and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a positive, supportive place for their kids!Posted on Google Lucas DiasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great place to start learning jiu-jitsu, with an excellent methodology and philosophy. Coach Matheus explains the movements very well and makes us feel very welcome. Great experience at Gracie Barra Layton, I recommend it to everyone who wants to start a journey in jiu-jitsu.Posted on Google Alex GuadnolaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Gracie Barra Layton was a great school. I visited from out of town and had a great time. Professor Steve ran an amazing class and I would recommend it to anyone in the areaPosted on Google jaredTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Two of my grandkids tried the free Saturday class and then joined. It now has been two months and has been nothing but a great experience and they look forward to it daily. All the instructors are very professional of the classes I have watched. The cost for the amount of time they get with instruction is amazing. They also have made new friends and it’s a very positive experience for them.
