Introduction

What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ)?

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, commonly known as BJJ, is a martial art and combat sport that originated in Brazil in the early 20th century. It is a grappling-based martial art that emphasizes technique, leverage, and strategy, rather than brute strength or size.

Technique, Leverage, and Strategy

BJJ is based on the concept of using leverage to control and submit an opponent. The techniques involve grappling on the ground, where practitioners use various holds, joint locks, and chokes to control their opponent and force them to submit.

Sport and Self-Defense

BJJ is a highly effective martial art that has become increasingly popular in recent years, both as a sport and as a self-defense system. It is a great way to improve your physical fitness, build strength and endurance, and develop self-discipline and mental toughness.

BJJ for All Ages and Abilities

One of the unique aspects of BJJ is that it is suitable for people of all ages and abilities. It is an inclusive and welcoming martial art that can be adapted to suit individual needs and goals. Whether you are looking to compete at a high level, improve your fitness, or simply learn an effective self-defense system, BJJ has something to offer.

GB Jiu-Jitsu is a truly exciting way to get fit

Jiu-Jitsu is often likened to a game of human chess. If you don’t like to work out at a gym because you get bored, you’re not alone. Many of our students were tired of going to the gym, and they couldn’t find new songs or audio books to entertain them on the treadmill. They found Jiu-Jitsu to be the perfect workout because it requires a high level of concentration proportional to the amount of calories burned and pounds lost. What’s more, you’ll still learn to defend yourself. It’s a win-win situation.

GB people are committed to your progress in learning

The folks at GB make our school what it is, and you too will soon be one of us. You’ll be impressed by how committed each and every team member is to your learning. The instructors, staff and other students make our environment friendly yet demanding and challenging, which stimulates all of us to achieve our best.

The renowned Gracie Barra structure makes your journey in learning smooth and enjoyable

The class structure is the trademark of all Gracie Barra Schools. Classes start on time and adhere to a standardized curriculum and class structure. As a student, you know up front what is expected of you and have a clear understanding of what to expect from your instructors and training partners.

GB Fighting Techniques will be useful outside the mats, in real-life situations

You don’t come to class just to learn how to fight. You also work hard toward mastering the underlying principles that allow you to succeed on the mats. When applied to your life off the mats, these principles can bring more balance to your routine and help you reach your true potential.

You can train all over the world

There are over 700 Gracie Barra Schools worldwide. When you join a Gracie Barra school you are free to train at any location while traveling.

Cleanliness is a top priority. Our schools adhere to the strict standard of cleanliness and hygiene set by Gracie Barra. GB School staff clean the facilities constantly, and all GB uniforms are washed regularly. Our GB School mats are cleaned on a daily basis with a specially designed cleaning agent that neutralizes bacteria, fungus and odors without detriment to the equipment.

You couldn’t find a safer environment

Student safety is our instructors’ primary goal. Training sessions are supervised at all times, and we have CPR-trained personnel on duty during every class.
