Jiu-Jitsu: Which sessions are right for you?
The History of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
in 1904, Kano Jigoro, the founder of Judo, sent 5 of his specialist members to different nations around the world to spread his newfound style of martial arts. Mitsuyo Maeda, one of Kano’s specialists left Japan, visiting many countries presenting ‘Jiu-do’ and accepting challenges from many different martial artists.
Arriving in Brazil in 1914, Carlos Gracie was so amazed by Maeda’s demonstration that he decided to take up Judo. Young Gracie was accepted as his student and learnt the skill for many years, passing on his new knowledge to his younger brothers.
Hélio Gracie, a sibling of Carlos, gradually developed Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, as a way of adapting Judo’s ground techniques for his small physique to fight much larger opponents. From this adaption Gracie Jiu-Jitsu was created.
After many years of specialising Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, the Gracie’s opened their own academy in Rio De Janeiro, accepting challenges from all other forms of martial arts.
They quickly established themselves within the fighting world and carried on developing strategies and techniques that they learnt from Maeda. Bettering their skills by practising real fight scenarios.
Several members of the Gracie family emigrated to the US in the 80’s, but it wasn’t until the 90’s that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu became world known.
Royce Gracie entered the first ever Ultimate Fighter Championships (UFC), where Martial Artists from all styles, weights and backgrounds battled it out to be the best. At this point there was very-little known about Jiu-Jitsu until Royce Gracie competed in his first bout.
Royce Gracie won the tournament with ease by way of submission in each of his fights against a lot of heavier opponents, making Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu famous around the world with its elite style.
