There is a remarkable difference in the rate of progress between students who study in their off time and those who don’t. Sparring is 100% voluntary for Master Cycle students. Safety is the primary concern during these sparring exercises, and any students who do not train in a safe and productive manner will not be allowed to participate.
Then, you will practice the techniques with a cooperative partner until the movements become natural.Īt the end of class, you will have a chance to test your skills against a variety of training partners in a variety of controlled training exercises, such as: Rapid Mastery Drills, Focus Sparring Exercises, and Fight Simulation Drills. During the review period, we encourage you to collaborate with your training partners and ask questions of the instructors.Īfter the review, the instructor will present 2-3 new techniques from the current chapter of study. If you've achieved the rank of Gracie Combatives belt or higher in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and you would like to continue on the path to BJJ black belt in a safe, structured, and friendly learning environment, the Master Cycle is for you!Įvery Master Cycle lesson begins with a 15-20 minute review/warm-up period during which you will review previous lessons or explore techniques you may have learned online through Gracie University.
The Master Cycle’s unique structure simplifies the journey to black belt by organizing all of BJJ into into seven positional chapters (Mount, Side Mount, Guard, Half Guard, Back Mount, Leg Locks, Standing), each of which is studied for several months before moving on to the next chapter.
Beyond Gracie Combatives belt, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) consists of hundreds of advanced techniques organized into a clearly defined, systematic curriculum called the Master Cycle.
