Why Gracie Jiu-Jitsu?
• One in 6 people will be the victim of a violent attack. • One in 4 women will be the victim of a sexual attack in their lifetime. • 95% of all violent attacks and street fights end up on the ground. • 10% of violent attacks do not survive the encounter. • Atlanta is classified as one of America’s 5 most violent cities. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is the only system in the world that effectively deals with self-defense on the ground. It doesn’t matter if you’re a man, woman, or child, nor does it matter if you are small, weak, strong or “over the hill”. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu will give you the tools to defend yourself in a real world attack. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a modern combat system developed from traditional Jiu-Jitsu by Grand Master Helio Gracie. At 135 lbs., BJJ founder Helio modified the traditional Jiu-Jitsu to work based on technique and leverage rather than speed and strength. Using this system, Helio’s son UFC Champion Royce Gracie changed NHB (No Holds Barred) fighting forever.
