Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Victor

Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Victor For adults - Gracie Combatives is our beginner program for adults. Each one-hour lesson addresses one standing and one ground self-defense technique.

Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Victor – More than a workout, it’s a lifestyle! ✅ Safe, structured self-defense for all ages ✅ No experience needed ✅ A welcoming community that feels like family! 📍 Victor, NY – Try a FREE class today! 💪 In this program, you will learn the 36 core techniques of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu in a fun, safe, and cooperative environment. You can start the program at any time and participate in any class without previous experience and, since safety is our number one concern, there is no competitive sparring in this program. Upon successful completion of the Gracie Combatives program we will promote you to Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Blue Belt and you will qualify for advancement to the Master Cycle program. If you’re unsure about trying martial arts training for fear of injury, embarrassment, or any other reason, then the Gracie Combatives program is for you. Scroll down to learn more about Gracie Combatives or click here to find a Certified Training Center near you. Although Gracie Jiu-Jitsu consists of over 600 techniques, studies of real fights conducted by members of the Gracie Family have shown that 36 techniques have been used more often and with greater success than all the other techniques combined. Originally developed for the U.S. Army, Gracie Combatives is the only course that is entirely dedicated to the mastery of these 36 essential techniques. You need absolutely no experience to start this program. Our instructors conduct all classes in a cooperative training environment and are committed to ensuring that every new student has an informative, enjoyable experience regardless of age, gender, or athletic ability. Step 1: Learn the Techniques
We have divided the 36 Gracie Combatives techniques into 23 one-hour classes so that you can complete the course at your own pace. We designed each lesson so that you can start at any point in the course. As a result, you can complete the 23 lessons in any order. Upon enrolling, we will issue you a Gracie Combatives attendance card on which we will track your progress every step of the way. Step 2: Develop Your Reflexes
Once you complete each of the 23 Gracie Combatives lessons twice, you will qualify to participate in the Reflex Development (RD) Classes where you will learn how to combine the 36 techniques to address the most common occurrences in a real fight. Step 3: Earn Your Blue Belt
Once you complete each of the Gracie Combatives lessons three times, and you’ve completed at least 12 Reflex Development Classes, you are eligible to test for promotion to Blue Belt! We will administer a 25-minute test to assess your ability to execute the 36 essential techniques individually and in combination. If your performance meets Gracie Academy standards, you will qualify for promotion to blue belt and you will be allowed to attend our advanced Gracie Jiu-Jitsu program, the Master Cycle. Upon enrolling in the Gracie Combatives program at any Certified Training Center, you will receive a free subscription to GracieUniversity.com. Through this interactive website, you will have access to detailed video instruction on every technique in the course enabling you to study the lessons on any computer or mobile device 24 hours a day! Furthermore, all active students at a Certified Training Center qualify to train at any other Gracie Certified Training Center around the world. Since the curriculum is the same at all Certified Training Centers, you will receive credit for every lesson on your Gracie Combatives attendance card when you return home! Most martial arts schools limit you to only one free trial class. We offer new students a 10-day risk-free trial that includes a free uniform and unlimited access to all of our beginner group classes. We’re confident that the class structure, the camaraderie, and high quality instruction will convince you to let us guide you on your path to jiu-jitsu mastery. If it’s not exactly what you are looking for, we will never charge you a penny (the only requirement is that you return the free uniform that we provided to you). To take advantage of our 10-day free trial, simply contact Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Victor, and a student services representative will help you get started right away! For kids - Every month in the United States, three million children miss school due to fear of bullies. In the Gracie Bullyproof program, our goal is to instill in your child unshakable confidence so they can overcome bullies without violence. Due to the non-violent nature of the techniques, CNN, ABC, NBC, and Oprah have featured the Gracie Bullyproof program as one of the few effective counter-measures to bullying for children between the ages of 8 and 13. We will teach your child to use verbal assertiveness to deter bullies and several non-violent self-defense techniques to stay safe if physically assaulted. Importantly, we don’t teach how to punch or kick, since this often does more harm than good. Instead, we use leverage-based control holds to neutralize threats without violence. Numerous school districts have embraced the defensive nature of the Gracie Bullyproof techniques as a reasonable, nonviolent response to bullying and some even host Gracie Bullyproof classes on campus! The bottom line is: we will prepare your child to defend themselves against bullies without turning them into one.

What an incredible afternoon at Gracie Jiu Jitsu Victor!

Congratulations to every woman who joined us yesterday for our Women Empowered Self Defense Seminar. You showed up willing to learn, challenge yourselves, step outside your comfort zones, and discover just how capable you truly are.

A very special thank you to Katie and Nicole, two of our amazing Women Empowered instructors, and Noel and Kyle, two of our incredible Gracie Combatives instructors. Their energy, knowledge, encouragement, and commitment made a huge difference. We simply would not have had the class we did without them.

Yesterday was about much more than learning physical techniques. It was about recognizing something that can change the way we move through the world:
We are ALL worth defending!

That belief changes everything. It is how we go from paranoid to present, and from passive to Protector.

Thank you to everyone who trusted us with your time and brought such great energy to the room. Keep learning. Keep practicing. Keep trusting yourself.

And remember one of the most important principles of self defense:

Awareness gives us time. Time gives us options.

Congratulations to Sam Krocke on earning his Gracie Combatives Belt.

This represents much more than learning techniques. It reflects commitment, consistency, humility, and the willingness to keep showing up and growing.

One of the greatest privileges I have had through all these years of teaching is being invited into the lives of our students. I am always proud and genuinely honored to play even a small part in that journey, and I know I can speak for all of our instructors when I say how meaningful it is to watch someone reach a milestone like this.

Thank you as well for your service as a member of our Armed Forces. We appreciate the commitment and sacrifice that service represents 🇺🇸

AFTER SCHOOL DAYCARE OR JIU-JITSU? Both provide supervision. Jiu-jitsu adds a purposeful outcome.

Imagine your child spending those after-school hours building confidence, discipline, focus, resilience, fitness, and real self-defense skills—while having fun and making friends.

And for Victor families, we make it even easier:

🚌 FREE bus transportation from ALL Victor schools directly to Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Victor!

Give your child 10 days to experience the difference. It could be more than a new activity. It could be a life-changer.

🥋 This Week in Our Youth Programs

This week, our students are learning an important lesson about recognizing “tricky people” and unsafe behavior.

We want children to understand that a stranger is not automatically dangerous, just as someone familiar is not automatically safe. Through age appropriate conversations and Jiu Jitsu scenarios, we will help students recognize when something does not feel right, use their voice, create distance, get to safety, and immediately communicate with a trusted adult.

With school starting next week, this is a great time to continue these conversations at home. Ask your children what they learned, who they can turn to for help, and what they should do if a situation ever feels wrong, confusing, or uncomfortable.

Our goal is not to make children afraid of the world. It is to help them move through it with greater awareness, confidence, and wisdom.

Thank you for trusting us with your children. We never take that responsibility lightly, and we are grateful for the opportunity to support you in helping them become safer, stronger, and more confident.

“We do not teach children to fear the world. We teach them to recognize when something is wrong, trust their instincts, and know what to do next.”

AN INCREDIBLE MILESTONE FOR GRACIE VICTOR!

I am incredibly proud to announce that I have nominated Dave Hutchinson and Jared Green, and they have officially been invited by Ryron Gracie to test for their Black Belts in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu! Their Black Belt test will take place December 5 & 6 at Gracie University Headquarters in Torrance, California.

A Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt is about far more than technical ability. It represents years of training, thousands of hours on the mat, perseverance through setbacks, character, humility, countless lessons learned, and a commitment to continue growing.

Having the privilege of nominating Dave and Jared for this opportunity means more to me than I can adequately express. I’ve watched both of these men grow not only as jiu-jitsu practitioners, but as instructors, leaders, teammates, and friends. They have given so much of themselves to Gracie Victor and to the people around them, and I could not be prouder of the men they have become.

On December 5 & 6, Dave and Jared will step onto the mats at Gracie University carrying with them years of hard work, the support of their families, and an entire Gracie Victor community cheering them on from New York.

Dave and Jared, I am incredibly proud of you both and deeply grateful to have shared this journey with you. Go to Torrance, give everything you have, and enjoy every second of an opportunity you’ve spent years earning. I'll be there with you!
A Black Belt isn't the finish line. In many ways, it's the beginning of an entirely new chapter.

You earned the invitation. Now go earn those Black Belts.
Please join me in congratulating Dave Hutchinson and Jared Green on this extraordinary opportunity!
