My 16yr daughter started training at Gracie Barra after moving to Ottawa to do her second semester of grade 11. Joe, the manager, and the entire club were very welcoming, having me join a class with my daughter to check it out. It’s great knowing she is part of a hardworking and respectful club. The class selection and abundance are amazing, with sparring focusing on safety while constantly improving. Very grateful she has this club and people in her life.
