About Us
Gracie Jiu Jitsu was founded by Grand Master Helio Gracie over 80 years ago. The system was developed as a means for a frail 140-pound man to defend himself against larger and stronger opponents. Today, Gracie Jiu Jitsu is practiced by millions of people around the world, and our school is proud to be a part of this global community.
