Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, sometimes known as Gracie Jiu jitsu can be found in many places, My gym in Rush, Rush Fight Academy does it, Team Ryano in Baldoyle, Kyuzo in Glasnevin, there is more too.

thanks paul!! is gracie jiu jitzu the same as bjj? just striking involved?

Yup theyre the same.
There is zero striking in G/BJJ.
It is a grappling art.

GJJ is BJJ Daniel, their is a self defence syllabus the Gracie's do but that's not GJJ. Personally it's just a marketing tool they use to make money.

60 a month or 10 a class, for new members the 1st month of BJJ is free.

Full membership to the gym, that means you can train every evening weekdays and 4 mornings a week, that includes BJJ, MMA and Boxing.

even if ya just do 2 classes a week thats 7.50 a class.
Lot's of good clubs about though so i'd just go to wherever is local to you.

Absolute bargain. OP if you're interested in BJJ then I'd jump on this straight away.
