Our History:
Before founding Gracie United Baton Rouge, Steven Oubre began training Jiu-Jitsu twelve years ago to just spend time with his daughter. He opened his first gym when he was a purple belt and within ten years, he had received his black belt and his instructor requested him to open up a Gracie United location in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. On top of his full-time high school education career, Steven now owns two Jiu-Jitsu academies and strives for continued growth with the help of his community. Through his ongoing journey, he’s proudest of training Jiu-Jitsu with his family and watching his gym thrive.
Gracie United opened their first school in March 2017 and opened their most recent school in May 2022.
There are now thirty-two Gracie United locations across the country. The legacy of schools is established through faith and trust to promote a positive environment. Steven is honored to have the opportunity and relationship to open Gracie United Baton Rouge and continue sharing the values of Gracie United.
