Gracie Barra has given me so much—Professor Gui here in Scituate is a shining example of the power and positivity behind jiu jitsu. Professor Gui has invested so much time and energy into helping me get over a few huddles I’ve dealt with. I am Mike Krall and GB South Shore is always home!!

Gracie Barra South Shore has been an incredible addition to my life and weekly routine. The team environment is second to none. Professor Guilherme is remarkably skilled in all aspects of knowledge and instruction. All team members are supportive and encouraging across all skill levels, ages and athletic ability. There is something for everyone here: whether you're looking for new friends and a great workout, or are focused on competing at a high level, you will find it all here!

An incredible school where the instructors truly care about the students. I have multiple children who attend and the difference in their patience, confidence and respect has been nothing short of remarkable.

My family and I feel very lucky to have Gracie Barra South Shore in Scituate Harbor . Professor Guilherme is an exceptional jiu jitsu instructor, practitioner, and all around great person. He truly cares about his students and has an uncanny ability to assess the needs of his students of all ages.Jiu-jitsu here has become an incredible bonding experience for me with both of my children (boy 8, girl 6). One of Our favorite days of the week is the Saturday Parent/kid class and it’s a blast. At home there’s a lot of banter about new/future stripes, belt promotions , and belt rank.I highly recommend Gracie Barra South shore! Professor Guilherme and Mimy have created something really specialhere.

Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, ValueMy 5 year old son and I have been students at Gracie Barra South Shore just over a year now and I cannot recommend more highly!Very clean facilities, welcoming atmosphere and an amazing community of adults, kids and parents. Professor Guilherme and Mimy have built something truly amazing and I’m very grateful they’ve brought their school and expertise to Scituate.Professor Gui is wonderful with kids focusing on safety, anti-bullying, self defense, discipline, inclusivity and fun. The classes incorporate warmups with a great intro to building strength and flexibility as well as techniques and training filtered perfectly for each age group and games which are always a hit and deliver on the “time to play and time to learn” philosophy.Whether the adults I’ve trained with or parents with kids in my sons classes, we've made great friends and everyone has been super kind and gracious. Credit to Professor Gui for the positive environment he and Mimy have created here and his very intentional and thoughtful teaching style meeting each student where they are.The growth in confidence for my son this past year has been remarkable to see and I’m excited to see how we both continue to learn and grow in BJJ and as individuals as we continue our Jiu-Jitsu journey with Professor and Mimy at GB South Shore!

I have been training at GB South Shore for over a year and it has been the best year of my life! I have learned more than I ever could have imagined. The family atmosphere and camaraderie makes learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu a life changing experience. Professor Guilherme is an extremely knowledgeable, passionate, and dedicated teacher/ mentor. To anyone looking to start training, I couldn’t recommend a better place to start!

I came here for a free trial class roughly 3 months ago and immediately knew this was where I wanted to train. I was very apprehensive about starting my Jiu Jitsu journey at 39 but they have created such a safe, welcoming environment to learn that I would encourage anyone at any age or skill level to give it a try. Our 7 year old recently joined as well and seeing his confidence boost on the mats and at home has been amazing. I would encourage anyone looking to train Jiu Jitsu to check them out!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. As someone whose new to the BJJ, I wasn't sure how to write a proper review. After 6 months of training, I think the best place to start is with the Culture. And culture starts with leadership...Professor Gui and Mimy have created a Culture of trust, safety , empowerment, patience, understanding and community.From day 1, I was welcomed and made to feel comfortable, not only by Professor Gui, but all the students at GBSS. Everyone is there to learn and grow, and you can sense the honor and respect that everyone has for each other.The Classes and Curriculum are structured, scheduled and followed precisely, which I appreciate as it is not a hap hazard approach to training. Learning the physical art of BJJ is a blast, however the benefits of training goes way beyond just the physical.If you are thinking of training BJJ, I encourage you to reach out to Professor Gui and GBSS. After 6 months of training, my only regret is that I didn't start earlier.

We Love Gracie Barra South Shore!! The instructor is phenomenal, very patient, professional and good communication skills to makes sure you understand the positions. If you have been on the fence about trying out a class do and you will be hooked. My son started in October and loves it gets all his spent up energy out in a positive way! My husband signed up too and it is a great bonding experience for them.
