Jiu-Jitsu is called a martial ART for a reason. It’s powerful, but, if taught incorrectly, can be difficult to master and very skill-demanding. We know that you don’t have a decade to spare to practice moves in an academy.
Unlike uncertified schools with a one-size-fits-all approach, Gracie University spent an enormous amount of time creating custom-tailored programs, effective for different kinds of students. That’s why the unique curriculum structure is so important. This is exactly what makes Gracie Jiu-Jitsu® truly for everyone.
Historically, Jiu-Jitsu has been both a self-defense art and a recreational sport. Unfortunately, most modern schools spend the majority of their time teaching the competitive aspect of Jiu-Jitsu. We believe that there are many more benefits that Jiu-Jitsu can bring into your day-to-day life.
Certified Gracie Jiu-Jitsu® schools give you an indispensable self-defense tool: After leaving the training center you will learn how to respond in a dangerous situation. Confidence, fitness and weight loss, knowledge of the right moves make sure your personal growth develops in the right direction, ensuring your safety in the toughest circumstances.
When you approach a certified Gracie Jiu-Jitsu® Center anywhere in the world, the first thing you see above the door is the Gracie Triangle. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu® Center Toronto proudly has it as well.
It’s never been just a sport, just a self-defense class, or just a way to improve one’s physique.
