Gracie Barra Arnold

About

Based in Arnold, this martial arts club is part of the Gracie Barra network and serves the wider Nottingham area. It focuses on Brazilian jiu-jitsu, offering a place to train for those new to the mats as well as more experienced practitioners.

Brazilian jiu-jitsu centres on grappling and ground-based techniques, with an emphasis on leverage and control rather than strength. Sessions typically build fitness, coordination and confidence, and many people take it up for self-defence, competition or simply as a structured way to stay active. Visitors can usually expect coached classes suited to a range of levels.
