Start Something New In Fourways With Gracie Combatives®
The Gracie Combatives® Program is our beginner program for adults from 13 year and up. Here you learn 36 of the most effective and commonly used techniques of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu® in a fun, safe, and co-operative environment. Each lesson is an hour long and addresses one standing and one ground self-defence technique. Each of these techniques are further broken down into simplified drills/slices to facilitate the learning process so that all new students can understand.
New students can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience. As safety is our number one concern for all our members, there is no competitive sparring in this program. Once students have successfully completed the Gracie Combatives® program, they can earn their Gracie Combatives® Belt which will qualify them for advancement into the Master Cycle program.
There Are 3 Major Steps For Gracie Combatives®:
Step 1: Learn the Techniques
We have divided the 36 Gracie Combatives® techniques into 23 one-hour classes so that you can complete the course at your own pace. We designed each lesson so that you can start at any point in the course. As a result, you can complete the 23 lessons in any order without feeling overwhelmed or confused. Upon enrolling, we will issue you with a Gracie Combatives® attendance card on which we will track your progress every step of the way.
Step 2: Develop Your Reflexes
Once you complete each of the 23 Gracie Combatives® lessons twice, you will qualify to participate in the Reflex Development (RD) Classes where you will learn how to combine the 36 techniques to address the most common occurrences in a real fight.
Step 3: Earn Your Gracie Combatives® Belt
Once you complete each of the Gracie Combatives® lessons three times, and you’ve completed at least 12 Reflex Development Classes, you are eligible to test for your Gracie Combatives® belt! We will administer a 25-minute test to assess your ability to execute the 36 essential techniques individually and in combination. If your reflexes are sharp and your performance meets Gracie University standards, you will qualify for promotion, and you will be ready to transition into our advanced program, the Master Cycle.
Master Your Skills With Gracie Master Cycle®
Beyond Gracie Combatives® belt, Gracie Jiu-Jitsu® consists of hundreds of advanced techniques organized into a clearly defined, systematic curriculum called the Master Cycle. The Master Cycle’s unique structure simplifies the journey to black belt by organizing all of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) into seven positional chapters (Mount, Side Mount, Guard, Half Guard, Back Mount, Leg Locks, Standing), each of which is studied for several months before moving on to the next chapter.
If you've achieved the rank of Gracie Combatives® belt or higher in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and you would like to continue on the path to BJJ black belt in a safe, structured, and friendly learning environment, the Master Cycle is for you! The class structure consists of a review/warm-up in each session,technical instruction of 2-3 new techniques from the current chapter of study, and focus sparring at the end of each class to test your skills against a variety of training partners.
