Vision
With the worldwide interest in the gentler
side of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, the need for an association was
vast. I felt that due to my status in the Martial Arts community,
along with my experience, I would be able to guide students
through the techniques and philosophy needed to build a strong
association and to unify the spirit of traditional concepts.
The Rickson Gracie International Jiu-Jitsu
Association is committed to serving and assisting in the development
of the athlete, by providing quality training through Official
Representatives worldwide.
The Association offers belt testing, seminars,
tournaments and certificates for its members, as well as providing
a structured atmosphere with guidelines and training records
for students who take their training seriously and wish to
track their progress.
Our classes are available to all members.
Members also have the opportunity to meet and train with members
in other states and countries, having access to the various
Representative training facilities throughout these areas,
without additional registration costs.
The Rickson Gracie International Jiu-Jitsu
Association welcomes students of all ages. From beginners
and advanced students, to those who are currently involved
in different styles of martial arts, the Association provides
the opportunity to add new techniques to their current skills.
I have received numerous physical and emotional
benefits as a result of many years of training. My vision
is, through the Association, to spread the benefits of Gracie
Jiu-Jitsu.
