At our academy we focus on both self-defense & sport jiu-jitsu. Although being an active BJJ competitor is not a requirement many of our students love participating is local, regional and national level tournaments. Let's go team Gracie Barra Whittier!
Gracie Barra is a leader in the anti-bully movement. We fight bullying by building our students into leaders who are self-confident, threat aware & empowered with the Gracie Barra self-defense system.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu creates leaders who are humble, focused & self-aware. The amazing thing is these are merely byproducts of a committed jiu-jitsu practice.
Jiu-Jitsu for self-defense differs from other marital arts such as karate, tae kwon do or kickboxing because our focus is not on striking. We focus on neutralizing a threat with control over punches & kicks. This means no broken noses, no black eyes and no angry parents in a principles office.
