By mastering all the techniques in this course, individually and in every possible combination, you will qualify to be tested for promotion to Blue Belt.īeyond Blue Belt, Gracie Jiu-Jitsu consists of hundreds of advanced techniques, all of which have been organised into a clearly defined, systematic curriculum called the Master Cycle. To optimise learning, and to best prepare you for the Blue Belt, we encourage you to adhere to the curriculum and you’ll graduate to the advanced classes after mastering the core techniques of the art of Jiu Jitsu.

Once your reflexes are strong in the execution of all variations of the techniques, we will show you how to combine the new move with 5-7 previously learned techniques in a Fight Simulation Drill. After you perfect each variation of the technique, we’ll teach you how to combine them in a Reflex Development Drill.
#Gracie master cycle curriculum series#
In each of the lessons, we’ll teach you two major techniques using a series of clearly defined drills or Technical Slices.
In this course, we use a new training process called Dynamic Reflex Development to take you, regardless of age or athletic ability, from no knowledge to “defence ready” in the least amount of time. Although Jiu-Jitsu consists of more than 600 techniques, studies of challenge matches conducted by the Gracie family in the last 80 years show that 36 techniques are used more often and with greater success than all the others combined. Gracie Combatives is the only course that is entirely dedicated to the mastery of these 36 essential techniques.
