Training with Ranard Brown has been an incredibly empowering experience. As a woman in a traditionally male-dominated sport, I look for instructors who not only know the art inside and out but also create a safe, supportive environment—and Ranard does exactly that.

Tifany Trees GLKN Student

I love training here, both coach Ranard and Ryan are great! I just moved here and was worried I wouldn't find a new spot to train that I felt comfortable at with knowledgeable coaches. But thankfully I have found my new training home here.

Jessica More GLKN Student

I've been training with Ranard at Gracie LKN on and off for the last year and I absolutely love it. He breaks each block of instruction down into specific, memorable movements to build muscle memory and is always willing to repeat and rep it out to drive the point home. The facility is clean, Ranard and Leigh Ann are super nice, and the other students are welcoming and willing to jump in and help with the lessons. Highly recommended regardless of skill level.

Dan B GLKN Student

My kids have been training for almost 6 months now at Gracie Lake Norman and their progress has been a sight to see. The instruction has not only included jiujitsu techniques but also important life skills including how to project strength, confidence and discipline. Many thanks to the staff for making this such a great learning experience for all students.

Richard B. GLKN Parent

An amazing place to train BJJ at! The staff is very welcoming and eager to help anyone at any skill level. The instructors are all very skilled competitors, that do an excellent job at translating drills to practical skills. Very good atmosphere and a great privilege to be able to train here.

Chandler Watts GLKN Student

I've been practicing jiujitsu since 2013 and absolutely love this school! Moved to the area about 2 years ago and was looking for a school to improve my training. After a few trials at other schools GLKN was far and above the best choice.

Why Private BJJ Training is the Fastest Way to Improve

Get Personal Attention & Accelerate Your Progress

Private sessions are led by Ranard Brown, 3rd Degree Black Belt and 8x BJJ World Champion, giving you direct access to elite-level coaching tailored to your goals. Training in a group setting is beneficial, but let’s be honest—you won’t always receive the one-on-one coaching you require. With private BJJ classes, each session is tailored to your skill level, goals, and needs. Whether you’re a beginner, a competitor, or simply want to get fit, our BJJ personal trainers will concentrate entirely on YOU.

Learn proper techniques faster with real-time corrections
Ask questions and get immediate feedback
Drill techniques repeatedly without rushing through a class

Result? Many students see faster progress with focused, one-on-one attention
