GRACIE Magazine is special because it's the most traditional source of information on Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu on Earth. Published since 1996 in Brazil, where Jiu-Jitsu grew during the 1900's, it represents the Jiu-Jitsu philosophy. Practitioners usually say Jiu-Jitsu is neither a sport nor a mere martial art; it's a way of life. If so, GRACIE Magazine is that way of life written and printed.
