About Gracie Jiu-Jitsu
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu has been specifically designed so the practitioners can defeat
physically bigger, stronger and more powerful opponents by using leverage and
technique rather then brute power and strength. (i.e. submissions, choke holds, and
joint locks).
This revolutionary military tested martial art will teach you the most effective self-
defense techniques in real life threatening situations - including sexual assaults and
rape. You will learn defenses against most commonly used attacks with and without
weapons, including how to avoid being taken down and how handle an aggressor
while on the ground by learning the ability to exploiting the most vulnerable parts of
an attacker and training your mind to gain strategic advantage during an encounter.
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu will radically improves all aspects of a person’s life: it transforms
the body, sharpens the mind and builds a non-quitting spirit. Men, women, and
children can benefit from this wonderful martial art: whether their goal be a no
nonsense approach to learning practical self-defense, or increasing strength,
power, speed, muscular endurance, stamina, cardiovascular conditioning,
flexibility, weight control and self discipline.
The challenges you face while training in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is that all the challenges
you face in training will help relieve stress and achieve a high level of confidence,
self-esteem, and discipline. Not only does training increase your coordination,
but knowing you have such control over your body (and any physical situations
that may arise) also improves your emotional control. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu helps
you learn that you can solve any situation you face. In learning self defense and
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, you realize that you are capable of escaping from extremely
adverse situations. And that experience translates into everyday life.
