Not only is it great material but it's the base for the Master Cycle. You should go through the Gracie Combative program first. The Gracie Master Cycle is the highest level grappling instruction I have ever seen. You also spar where one person has boxing gloves on and is trying to punch you, this changes everything as many JJ techniques are worthless if your opponent can hit you. With this sparring you may started mounted, so you can practice the mount escapes you learned that, then it flows from there. The problem is you don't get to use the techniques you just learned because you may never end up in that position during sparring or you get into trouble and will revert back to what you are good at. Normally in class you just spar and whatever happens, happens. It puts you a step ahead of your opponent.

There are a few unique things that I really like about the way Ryron and Rener teach their online lessons.įirstly, of course, is the systematic way each new technique or position is introduced and explained in the context of previous lessons, and in the bigger picture of Gracie Jiu Jitsu. For specifics of the actual lesson contents you can click on the curriculum link on the Gracie University website. There are lots of great instructional videos on the market today, so rather than give an overview of what each lesson contains let me go over what I think sets Gracie University apart as the leader in its field. When it was released, Gracie University was way above and beyond my expectations and with each new module I'm continually impressed with the lessons. Rener in the past in person and, already owning the Gracie Combatives program, I knew it would be an awesome product.
