GRACIE BULLYPROOF
We will teach your child to use verbal assertiveness to deter bullies and several non-violent self-defense techniques to neutralize threats without punching or kicking. Numerous school districts have embraced the defensive nature of our techniques and even host our programs on campus.

BLACK BELT CLUB
We invite children who excel in the Jr. Grapplers program to join the Black Belt Club. This is our most advanced youth jiu-jitsu program and joining the Black Belt Club is the highest honor for any youth Gracie Jiu-Jitsu practitioner. Kids in this program possess all the traits necessary for success on the path to a black belt: discipline, respect, courage, leadership, loyalty, and compassion.
