GRACIE BARRA History
Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu traces its roots to the Gracie family, particularly Carlos and Helio Gracie in Brazil during the early to mid-20th century. The Gracies developed Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), a martial art that emphasizes ground fighting and submissions, adapting Japanese Jiu-Jitsu and Judo techniques to suit their needs.
In 1986, Carlos Gracie Jr. founded Gracie Barra. His vision was not only to promote the effectiveness of BJJ in self-defense but also to create a global community that embraced the values of respect, discipline, and continuous improvement.
With an emphasis on both sport and self-defense aspects of BJJ, Gracie Barra has become one of the most influential and widespread Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu organizations globally. It continues to play a significant role in the evolution and popularization of BJJ, impacting practitioners from various backgrounds and skill levels.
