The Gracie Barra Method
The Gracie Barra Method, developed over decades by Master Carlos Gracie Jr., teaches Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in an accessible, safe, and effective manner. Our method focuses on three core principles: structure, discipline, and community.
Structure
At Gracie Barra New Mexico, our classes follow a structured curriculum that ensures consistent and progressive learning. The curriculum includes different programs tailored to various skill levels and age groups:
- GB1 (Fundamentals Program): This program, designed for beginners, focuses on the core techniques and principles of BJJ. Students learn the basics of self-defense, positional control, and submissions.
- GB2 (Advanced Program): This program builds on the fundamentals and introduces more advanced techniques and strategies. Students refine their skills and develop their unique style.
- GB3 (Black Belt Program): This program, for advanced practitioners, aims at mastery in BJJ. It includes high-level techniques, competitive strategies, and in-depth theoretical knowledge.
- GB Kids Program: Tailored for children, this program develops physical fitness, discipline, and self-confidence while teaching essential BJJ techniques in a fun and engaging way.
- GB No-Gi Program: This program offers training without the traditional gi uniform, focusing on techniques applicable in both gi and no-gi scenarios. It provides a different dynamic, improving students’ adaptability and versatility in grappling.
Discipline
Discipline forms a cornerstone of the Gracie Barra philosophy. At Gracie Barra New Mexico, we instill discipline through consistent training, respect for instructors and peers, and adherence to BJJ values. Students learn to set goals, work diligently, and maintain focus on and off the mats.
Community
Gracie Barra New Mexico is more than just a training place; it’s a community. We foster a supportive environment where students encourage and help each other grow. This sense of community creates a positive and motivating atmosphere, making training enjoyable and rewarding.
Training at Gracie Barra New Mexico
Training at Gracie Barra New Mexico is comprehensive and holistic. Here’s what you can expect:
- Warm-Up and Conditioning: Each class begins with a warm-up to prepare the body for training. This includes cardio exercises, stretching, and drills to improve flexibility, strength, and endurance.
- Technical Instruction: Our instructors demonstrate and explain techniques step-by-step. Students practice these techniques in a controlled and safe manner, ensuring proper understanding and execution.
- Drilling and Sparring: Drilling helps students refine their techniques through repetition. Controlled sparring, or “rolling,” allows students to apply what they’ve learned in a realistic setting, improving their timing, reflexes, and adaptability.
- Cool Down and Reflection: Classes end with a cool-down period to help the body recover. Instructors provide feedback and encourage students to reflect on their progress and set goals for future training.
