More Than Jiu-Jitsu. A Transformation for Life.
Our methodology is rooted in the tradition of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu passed down through the Gracie family.
We were trained under Master Pedro Hemetério, a direct student of Carlos Gracie and Hélio Gracie, the pioneers of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu in Brazil. Throughout this journey, we have had the honor of representing the Gracie family alongside renowned masters such as Rorion Gracie, Royler Gracie, Royce Gracie, and Rolker Gracie.
Our experience also includes competition training and preparation, as well as instruction for security professionals and law enforcement personnel, always emphasizing technical excellence, control, and the practical application of Jiu-Jitsu.
Today, we share this knowledge with our students, preserving the principles, techniques, and values of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu while promoting personal growth and development both on and off the mats.
