Program
The Gracie Barra Program Structure defines three main stages of development for students: the Fundamentals Program, the Advanced Program and the Black Belt Program. These stages indicate different maturity levels and students transition from one to the other by their own natural progression.
While the Fundamentals Program focuses on the building blocks and basic principles of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the Advanced Program focuses on high-level techniques and drills that start shaping the student’s game flow through the development of reflexes, speed and reaction time as well as transitions between one technique and another.
After a few months in the GB Advanced Program, students typically experience a deeper involvement in GB’s philosophy, a stronger bond with training partners, and more discipline and commitment to healthy habits that keep them in good shape.
Advanced Program classes are based on a defined class structure and curriculum that take a broad and open-minded approach to incorporating techniques from different grappling styles like wrestling, judo, sambo, and of course, Gracie Barra Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
