Red Shield Founders and inauguration

The very first 50 students to join Gracie Barra Riverton earned the title of Red Shield Founders, securing a place in our history from day one. Many of them share how honored they feel to be part of the story of their favorite Jiu-Jitsu school, helping shape the community, traditions, and spirit that make training Jiu-Jitsu here so special.

What’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu All About?

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or simply BJJ, is the best martial art for self-defense. It can suits every kind of people as it’s all about using leverage, timing, and smart technique to control someone, no matter their size, without relying on strength alone.

People call it “The Gentle Art” because the goal isn’t to hurt your training partner, but to outsmart them using holds, pins, and submissions. We train in a safe, respectful way so everyone can learn and improve together.

The cool part? BJJ is like a real-life game of chess, but you’re moving your whole body instead of pieces on a board. It keeps your mind sharp, your body active, and your problem-solving skills on point. Plus, no matter how long you train, there’s always something new to learn, which is why people stick with Jiu-Jitsu for life.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu lifestyle

Training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is more than just learning techniques, it’s a lifestyle that naturally leads to healthier habits. Most students find themselves eating better, staying active, and taking care of their bodies because what you do off the mats makes a big difference when you’re on them.

At Gracie Barra, brotherhood is one of our core values. You’ll be part of a community of like-minded people who encourage you, challenge you, and celebrate your progress. The friendships you build here often grow far beyond the mats.

We’re not a fight club, we’re a family. Our goal is to offer the best Jiu-Jitsu in Utah while giving every member a safe, positive, and motivating place to train.
