Discover Why BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU Is Considered The Ultimate Martial Art
95% of all self-defense situations end up on the ground or in the grappling range YET Grappling remains the most neglected range of self-defense in most martial art systems.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a complete fighting system that will teach you how to control and subdue your opponent. You will learn not only how to immobilize attackers effectively so they can’t attack you but also how to defeat them humanely. It’s the only PROVEN style where a smaller person can immobilize and defeat a stronger larger attacker. There is a reason that all Professional Mixed Martial Artists have trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu – IT IS FUNDAMENTAL FOR SELF-DEFENSE AND FIGHTING!

Kid Peligro Jiu-Jitsu News . . . Gracies on the move - Quiksilver Troops Kidnap Rickson - Royce in Rio - Quiksilver Eddie Aikau on line free - Gracie Barra Premium

Year end is usually a slow time for everyone but not for some members of the Gracie family. Recently Royler Gracie did a seminar tour on the US and soon he wil be going to the Phillipines for the Ring of Fire show. His brother Rickson Gracie is now on the North Shore of Oahu doing a project with Quiksilver (more on that below) and partaking of some great waves. Royce Gracie is currently in Rio for some well deserved R&R before returning to the US later this week. Royce will be going to the Ring of Fire show as well as he is coaching one of the teams fighting in the events.

Our friend JD reports on Rickson's stay at the Quiksilver House on the North Shore of Oahu

Kid,

Well the North Shore is really heating up now! With the Triple Crown of surfing in town and the surf pumping thru, it makes sense that surfers from all over the world come to enjoy. Names such as Andy Irons, Sunny Garcia and Kelly Slater are common this time of year, but a name such as Rickson Gracie? Yes, that's right, the Legendary Rickson Gracie is on the North Shore to surf the great waves and relax on the beautiful beaches.

Well relax . . . not really! Rickson has been spotted training on the beach every morning and surfing all day. Rickson is staying with his son Kron at the Quiksilver Proformance house, which is located at Velzyland. Kron has been teaching the Quiksilver team, Gracie Jiu-jitsu every night, but last night the team got a great surprise as Rickson taught class with Kron. It was unreal treat for everybody to say the least, Rickson breaks things down so simple with the best details you've ever seen! Wow the Gracies have made a big impact here the season allready with Royler here a couple weeks ago and now Rickson.. And of course Kron has been holding down the fort the whole time!

Quiksilver nailed an interview with Rickson and it should be up on there site next week, will give you guys a link when its up. Please don't forget about the Eddie Aikau opening ceremonies live webcast Thursday Nov. 29th at 3:30PM Hawaiian time or 5:30PM Pacific time.

I'm sure both Rickson and Kron will be there to share the Aloha!!!
See you guys online,
JD

Gracie Barra Santa Ana - Continuing to Raise the Bar

This month, GB Company launched the prototype of its Gracie Barra Premium School Program with the inauguration of Gracie Barra Santa Ana where professors Ulpiano Malachias and Fabio Costa are doing an spectacular job. The new program consists in a new relationship between the GB Association and the GB School, where the former provides wide and deep support to the later by offering training, consulting and billing services.
All the GB Premium schools have 100 percent of implementation of the Gracie Barra Standardization Principles and follow very strict performance and quality standards, the same ones of Gracie Barra America, the headquarters of the GB Family.

The prototype of the Gracie Barra Premium Schools Program is for now restricted to the Orange County and Los Angeles County region as it requires a intensive training sessions with the actual involvement of GB America's staff. The program holds the promise of creating at least five new GB schools within the following six months. Cities like Yorba Linda, San Clemente, Huntington Beach, Garden Grove, and West Lake are included on the Program's radar. These communities will soon benefit from having a Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu school close to home.

Brazilian Black Belt BJJ CAMP (ABOUT US)
Would you like to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu exactly the way it is taught here in Brazil? If the answer is yes, then our exclusive Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Camp is just what you need!

In 2004, we created a very exclusive BJJ CAMP specifically designed for you to have the opportunity to experience what Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is like from the original source.
Now, we have had several very successful and highly acclaimed classes go through our BJJ camp – all of them have provided a major opportunity for the attendees to learn the most technical Brazilian Jiu-jitsu available worldwide. What makes our camp so special? The answer is simple; it is taught by instructors that have proven to be the best teachers and competitors. Nowhere else can you train one on one with so many World Champions, National Brazilian Champions, State Champions, and title holders of the most significant competition events available.
Along with your total immersion in Jiu Jitsu, you will also be surrounded by Brazilian culture and experience the Rio de Janeiro life style like a native of Brazil. You will experience first hand the “relaxed atmosphere” of Brazilian life, and learn how this has a great influence on the learning process of the most effective martial arts system ever!
Get ready for the time of your life!!!
Why us?
First: We created this concept of the BJJ Camp. Others may try to copy it, but they don’t have the formula.
Second: We don’t advertise or promise big name Black Belts, then you end up with someone else. We also have the finest collection of instructors and champions available. ALL OUR INSTRUCTORS ARE BLACK BELTS, and they will roll with you everyday; get to know your style and personally critique and improve your game.
Our experience with the BJJ CAMP has proven to be so effective that we have been invited, and have successfully held International CAMPS in Europe and USA.

Third: At our BJJ CAMP the students and the teachers stay together the entire time - in the same place. We don’t take you to a hotel , or leave you to survive on your own. We are all together from the moment you arrive at the airport , to the moment you leave the airport on your departure day.

Fourth: The Brazilian Black Belt BJJ CAMP has the highest rate of referrals and students who return and bring friends with them.
Teaching method and activitie
Our teaching method has been developed by the finest instructors with several decades of combined experience. During your 10 DAYS at the BJJ Camp, you will learn through the same process and using the same concepts that we personally use to prepare for international competition at the top tournaments. From your first minute to very end of the camp, we will develop the technique and movement that will help you to incorporate the best natural flow to your game. Our exclusive system of teaching will help you to understand the way the technique works and how to apply the same concept to several different situations and opponents. When we teach you a technique, and make you understand the mechanics and theory behind it, you will be able to immediately apply it in other positions with full understanding of why it works. Our process will improve your game so fast and so significantly, that 10 days training will give you the equivalent of months of experience!
Now, remember this before you decide to come; we train hard, we train very seriously, but we also party hardy! There is no place like Rio! In addition to the training routine, there is plenty of time for extra activities such as visiting nearby beaches, jogging, mountain biking, surfing lessons, scuba diving, boat trips, the famous Rio night clubs, poker nights, skating, and…a lot more!
Location and accommodation
The Brazilian Black Belt BJJ CAMP is located in Buzios, the most charming area in the state of RIO DE JANEIRO. We are 90 minutes from the state capital.
Voted by the citizens of the state of Rio De Janiero as “the best city for holidays and summer vacation,” this area is located in a small peninsula with 23 beautiful beaches with crystal clear water, an outstanding night life, and some of the best restaurants available. Dining is diverse, and includes a wide variety of cuisine such as Japanese, Brazilian, Mexican, Italian, French, and more.


In addition to our 2 large mat areas, our facility also includes seven suites, a swimming pool, and a sauna. You live here, and train here – all in one!



Fun+ techniques+ relax= BJJ CAMP
As a matter of fact it is located steps way from the Geriba beach, where all the beautiful people go to hang out and also the only beach that have waves to surf. You can literally finish your training and take less than 10 steps to reach the sand and go for a refreshing jump in the ocean.

FAQ

What are the students level?
As we teach the concepts (the way things work), the different levels of students is not a problem. We have had students from white belts to black belts and they were all pleased at the end.

CARLINHOS NO GI:

Carlinhos Gracie speaks about No-gi Worlds

Early registration brings discount

Set for December 15th, the 1st No-Gi Jiu-Jitsu World Championship promises to bring together some of the sport’s greatest stars in the California State University Dominguez Hills gymnasium, in Carson City, in greater Los Angeles. Sign-ups are already open, and can be done online on the International Jiu-Jitsu Federation website. Those to sign up before Wednesday, the 28th, will pay a special promotional price of US$ 80, whereas those to sign up between November 29th and December 8th, the deadline, will pay a fee of US$ 100.

President of the International Jiu-Jitsu Federation, instructor Carlos Gracie Jr. is working on making the no-gi Worlds see the same organizational success as the gi world championships are known for. GRACIEMAG.com contacted Carlinhos, who direct from California spoke on his perspective on how the coming championship will unfold.

GRACIEMAG.com: How have preparations for this event been coming along?
“I’ve received a lot of emails and there is a lot of murmur about the championship, we expect it to be a success. We’ll hold the championship in one day only, since it’s the first one, and will be a great experience, which is why we’ll have a limited number of athletes. So it is very likely the maximum number of sign-ups will be reached soon, which is why you should not delay in signing up,” he said.

GRACIEMAG.com: How will the event be organized?
Carlos Gracie Jr: The event will be in the International Federation format, or in other words, a large scale event, as is the Jiu-Jitsu World Championship, which was held in August. We hope to have fighters from all over the world, even though this is the first championship to take place.

GRACIEMAG.com: What’s the difference between this world championship and other submission grappling events taking place out there?
Carlos Gracie Jr: Submission grappling is nothing more than Jiu-Jitsu without the gi, although there are many championships around that adopt different rules for certain types of athletes. At this World Championship we’ll adopt Jiu-Jitsu rules, thus favoring our fighter so they’ll be able to compete the way they are used to competing, in true Jiu-Jitsu form. The goal is to hold our art in greater esteem.

GRACIEMAG.com: What is your view on the growth of submission grappling around the world?
Carlos Gracie Jr: The style is becoming very popular, and the Jiu-Jitsu fighters are the ones that have been fighting and winning these tournaments in every corner of the world. Now they will have the chance to fight in a tournament the way they enjoy and learned to, since Jiu-Jitsu is largely responsible for this popularity.

Grappling Arts Associaion of Britain:


Grappling Arts Associaion of Great Britain.
A message from the directors of The Grappling Arts Association of Great Britain. (GAAGB). The Governing Body for Grappling in the UK.

For many years the development of combat sports have been a reaction to a situation rather than a proactive move to head off the situation before it begins. The very nature of this attribute is ingrained into many martial arts and combat sports - from its business attitude to the training of it fighters. The champions of these sports have been the ones who have honed their talents in such a way as to be able to predict or read what their opponent or the situation will do or turn into.

With Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Submission Grappling being the fastest growing martial arts in the world, we as practitioners have a duty to steer it in the right direction, predict where it will go and not have it taken over by institutions that have no interest in its core and history.

The Grappling Arts Association is more than just a govening body, it is a 'Think Tank' with the best minds from our sports being brought together to grow grappling and bjj and the industry around it; bringing together their business acumen from their specific fields such as the music, design, electronic and publishing industries.

Aside from directing our sport in a healthy direction these directors along with the companies they own and work are aiming to conquer through the sport, social problems like 'Child Obesity' and "Bullying in Schools", by giving our children more focus and direction in their lives, somthing that is missing so much in todays society.

Support the sport
