GB2: Advance your Jiu-Jitsu

The Advanced Program is built on high-level techniques and exercises that help students develop their reflexes, speed, and reaction time, making transitions between techniques smoother.

After a few months in the GB Advanced Program, students often find themselves more deeply connected to the Gracie Barra philosophy and adopt habits that lead to a healthier lifestyle.

GB3: achieve Black Belt excellence

The Gracie Barra Black Belt Program is the final stage of the GB adult program structure. While it marks the student's arrival at the highest level of training at our school, it also signifies a new beginning.

The goal of this program is to further develop the student's movement flow by exposing them to cutting-edge Jiu-Jitsu techniques and their variations.

It is in the Black Belt Program that most students truly understand what they've been told since their white belt days: Jiu-Jitsu is an endless journey of daily achievements that always leads to new challenges. The same old arm locks, chokes, triangles, Kimuras, takedowns, and guard passes take on new meaning as your game evolves.
