Adult Gracie
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

The purest form of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu for adults of every level — from your first day to competition. Gi and no-gi, taught step by step, safe for any age or fitness level.

The Program

Start where
you are

Our Gracie BJJ Basics program is the most effective way to learn Jiu-Jitsu self-defense. You’ll build a real foundation — leverage, position, and submission — through clear, patient instruction and consistent practice.

Gracie Basics is perfect whether you’re “in shape” or “out of shape.” You’ll get fit as you train, learning simple techniques that don’t rely on strength — and progressing at your own pace toward advanced gi and no-gi grappling.

  • All levels welcome — beginners train safely alongside experienced students
  • Gi & no-gi submission grappling
  • Competition class & open-mat sparring for those who want it

On The Mat

What you’ll learn

Submissions

Self-Defense

Stand-up self-defense, striking awareness, and takedowns — plus how to overcome panic with breath control.

Ground Control

Ground defense and submissions, positional escapes, and the leverage that lets a smaller person prevail.

Throws

Judo and wrestling throws integrated into a complete Gracie Jiu-Jitsu game.

Advanced Gi

Advanced Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gi techniques for students ready to sharpen their game.

Do I need experience to start?

No. Most people walk in with zero experience. Our certified instructors teach in an organized, patient way so beginners can follow along safely from day one.

Do I need a gi for my first class?

No — shorts and a t-shirt are fine for your free trial. Once you enroll we’ll help you get a proper gi.

Is Jiu-Jitsu a good workout?

Yes. Consistent training builds real conditioning while you learn — one of the reasons members call it one of the best workouts they’ve had.
