ABOUT GRACIE UNVERISITY

Although there is no perfect substitute for the hands-on instruction one receives from a reputable instructor at a Certified Training Center, Gracie University was created to serve as the best alternative for those who don’t have access to a high-quality jiu-jitsu school.

The Gracie University claims to be the most effective distance learning program because it features a complete curriculum, total control, pure techniques, linear learning, ego-less training, dynamic reflex development, learning to teach, and more.
