Professor Alessandro De Morais
Certified Gracie Barra Instructor
Professor Alessandro De Morais began his Jiu-Jitsu journey in 2008, training under Professor Alex Costa. From his very first class, Jiu-Jitsu became more than just a sport—it became a lifelong pursuit that would shape his character, discipline, and approach to teaching. Over the years, this dedication evolved into a passion for helping others grow through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, both on and off the mats.

Posted on Google Veronica AsenceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have loved our experience at Gracie Barra Stoneham from the moment we walked through the door. I was drawn to BJJ in particular because of the philosophy of the Gracie Barra style. It’s so much more than physical skill building. My son’s confidence, self-regulation, and respect for himself and others have all grown exponentially since he started BJJ just a few months ago. Professor Alessandro is amazing with our son. He is patient, kind, and encouraging. His wife Aneta is the other half of GB Stoneham and she is amazing - attentive, thorough, and so thoughtful. And their sons assist in class. It’s truly a family affair, and we feel so lucky to be a part of it! The studio is beautiful, always clean, and bright. We love the community of families who also attend. My younger son is so excited to join as well, and we look forward to staying a Gracie Barra family.Posted on Google Sarwada Tuladhar JhaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We’ve had a wonderful experience at Gracie Barra! Professor Alessandro is patient, encouraging, and does an amazing job building confidence, discipline, and respect while making classes fun. My 8-year-old looks forward to every class and has grown so much in both skill and self-confidence. Aneta at the front desk is always friendly, welcoming, and incredibly helpful. Highly recommend to any family looking for a supportive and positive environment!Posted on Google Paulo LopesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My son Lucas has been going to Gracie Barra Stoneham, and we are very happy with the school. The coaches are very patient with him and make him feel welcome. He enjoys going to class, and little by little we can see him getting more comfortable and confident. Everyone there is very friendly. We really recommend Gracie Barra Stoneham for families looking for a good place for their kids.Posted on Google Michelle SSOliveiraTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We couldn’t be happier with Gracie Barra Stoneham! We are especially grateful to Alessandro and Aneta for their dedication, hard work, and the welcoming environment they have created for all the students and families. From the moment our kids walk through the door, they are treated with kindness, respect, and genuine care. Alessandro and team do an amazing job teaching not only Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu but also important values like discipline, respect, patience, and teamwork. You can truly see the dedication and passion they have for every student. Our kids look forward to every class and have grown so much in confidence, skills, and character. This is much more than a martial arts school—it’s a place where children learn how to be better people. We are so grateful to be part of this community and highly recommend it to any family looking for a positive and supportive environment for they children.Posted on Google Sam ZhaoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professor Alessandro is simply one of the best instructors I have ever trained with. His knowledge of both Gi and No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu is exceptional. Every class is highly technical, detailed, and well-structured. He doesn't just teach techniques—he teaches the concepts, timing, reactions, and connections that make those techniques work against skilled opponents. What I appreciate most is that he constantly challenges his students and pushes them to improve. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced grappler, he'll help you identify weaknesses in your game and elevate your skills to the next level. Professor Alessandro is approachable, patient, and always willing to answer questions. His passion for Jiu-Jitsu and teaching is evident in every class. If you're looking for world-class instruction, a deep technical understanding of the art, and a coach who genuinely cares about your development, I highly recommend training with Professor Alessandro.Posted on Google Kelly LemelinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a wonderful place! Gracie Barre of stoneham is new bright and shiny. The staff and teachers are friendly and experts. I enjoy watching my 11 year old learn Jiu-Jitsu. It’s been hard finding something he likes, until now. Self defense is so important to keep yourself and kids protected. The instructor keeps the kids engaged and I would highly recommend Gracie -Jitsu, and am excited to take an adult class in the future.Posted on Google A JRTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
