Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Milwuakee

Specialties

Gracie Jiu-​Jitsu Milwaukee is a Level 3 Certified Training Center under the Gracie Jiu-​Jitsu Academy headquartered in Torrance, CA.

Gracie Jiu-​Jitsu is a complete system of self-​defense, enabling the smaller, weaker individual to defend themselves against a larger, stronger and more athletic attacker. All group class programs (Bullyproof for kids, Combatives for adults and Women Empowered for ladies) are organized into a linear, easy to follow curriculum. Every lesson has a specific focus, and cumulatively all the lessons fit together to make up the big-​picture. You know exactly where you came from, where you are now, and where you’re going. This takes the confusion out of learning allowing you to progress at a faster rate, which leads to higher retention and ultimately better reflex-​development.

All lessons are taught to the exacting standards of the Gracie Jiu-​Jitsu Academy and all instructors complete a rigorous Instructor Certification Program with live evaluation by Gracie family members in person. For a Gracie Jiu-​Jitsu Certified Instructor, the onus lies on them to ensure that the student learns — not the other way around. No traditional «hard teaching methods» or «discipline» are employed in Gracie Jiu-​Jitsu and you will never feel lost, left out or left behind.

History

Established in 2014.
