History:

Ryron and Rener Gracie started doing Gracie Jiu-Jitsu before they could walk, and in 2003, their grandfather, Grand Master Helio Gracie awarded them their black belts in the art. Today, they attribute all their success to the confidence, discipline, and principles of healthy living that were instilled in them during their early years.

Through this website, you will learn the exact child-teaching process that the Gracies have been using for 3 generations. You will have the opportunity to bond with your child while instilling in them unshakable confidence that will shape the rest of their life.

While exploring the curriculum, please keep in mind that all the lessons are presented in a linear format, and as a result, maximum comprehension can only be acquired by completing the lessons in the prescribed sequence.

Program Highlights:

Gracie Games™
Our father introduced us to Gracie Jiu-Jitsu before we could walk, but, he didn’t formally “teach” us any techniques until we were five or six years old. Instead, he developed ten playful exercises based on the fundamental principles of the art. He called these exercises “Gracie Games.” At the Gracie Academy, we introduce all children to the art with these games, and in this course, we will teach you how to play them with your child. Each Gracie Game and has three levels. When all 10 games have been completed, you will go back to the first game and play it again. But, each time you cycle through the games, you will gradually increase the intensity level. This process of cycling through the games at increasing levels of intensity will continue until your child masters all 10 Gracie Games and has fallen in love with the fun aspect of the art, at which point they will be ready for the Jr. Combatives course.

Support Services:

Gracie KidSAFE™
Child predators live in every corner of the world. In the United States alone, 800,000 children are reported missing each year. In almost all cases, proper training and increased awareness could have saved the victim. In this course, we empower your child through straightforward discussions of the most common ploys used by kidnappers at school, on the streets, near the house, and on the internet. We also have a powerful discussion on the ultimate kidnapper, drugs. The Gracie family has been drug-free for three generations, and in this course we teach your child why and how to say “no” when the moment of choice arrives.

Activities:

Gracie Games, graduated belt and stripe testing progression, Street Safe and Jr. Combatives. Verbal Jiu-Jitsu and the art of stopping a bully before he or she gets to the point of physical contact.

Field Trip Destinations: Get Bullyproof and never be afraid to go anywhere ever again.
Program Information:

Bullies have been around since the begining of civilization, and they aren't going away anytime soon. The U.S. Government's website against bullying, provides no sound solution for a child who is targeted by a persistent bully, and the string of highly publicized youth suicides is evidence that the schools cannot be entrusted with your child's safety. 

Over the last 85 years our family has successfully bully-proofed tens of thousands of children. And now we've made our complete system available on DVD and in online streaming video format so you can teach your child how to detect, deter, and deal with bullies - all from the comfort of your own home! 

With the Gracie Bullyproof system you will empower your child with the verbal strategies to stand up to bullies with unshakable confidence, and a series of non-voilent self-defense techniques to keep them safe if they are physically attacked. Gracie Bullyproof has already been featured on NBC, CNN, and Oprah.com as an effective counter-measure to bullying. The program is engaging, fun, and will ensure that your son or daughter does not have to go through life at the mercy of tormenting bullies.

Absolutely no experience is necessary to get started! Simply create a free student profile, and then watch the Parent Preparation Course that will automatically appear in your lesson library. After that, you'll be ready to explore the rest of the curriculum.

As you go through the program, use the Forum to ask questions and keep us posted on your child's progress. Most importantly, always remember to keep it fun!  We look forward to meeting you and your family one day.
