The Jiu-Jitsu I created was designed to give the weak ones a chance to face the heavy and strong. – Helio Gracie
PROGRAMS
Jiu-Jitsu is the most ancient and complete fighting art in the world today. Gracie Florida teaches practical defenses for the most common street attacks such as life-threatening chokes, grabs, punches, kicks, bear-hugs, and headlocks, as well as attacks with weapons such as guns, knives, bottles, baseball bats and sticks. The word Jiu-Jitsu is translated as “the gentle way,” or loosely “the art of gaining victory by yielding or pliancy”.

The big, strong, tough guy goes to class, and he keeps getting tapped by the skinny, technical guy. It begins to change him. It makes him humble. That’s what Jiu-Jitsu does to you. – Relson Gracie
