Renzo Gracie worldwide: every school, by country

Renzo Gracie's academy network grew out of his Midtown Manhattan school — one of the most influential rooms in American jiu-jitsu — and spans Renzo-operated academies and long-standing partner schools. This is the independent world directory — 86 schools across 13 countries, each listed with the address, phone and website the network's own locator prints, organised country by country and region by region, and linked into a full city guide wherever this site has verified the school. Search the whole world, or open a country.

An independent guide. Not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by Renzo Gracie.

By country

Every school on one map

Pins are placed from stored coordinates for each school's published address — geocoded through OpenStreetMap Nominatim (ODbL), or taken from the network's own locator where it publishes coordinates. A missing pin means the address hasn't been placed yet, not that the school moved.

All schools

Sorted by region, then city. Schools with a full guide link into the city page that covers them — schedule, first-visit terms and the evidence behind every claim live there.
