If you are new to Jiu Jitsu or returning from time off and want to get reacquainted with this fighting art I highly recommend Gracie East San Jose. My son and I recently joined this program after having spent 2 years in a non - Gracie affiliated school. Our previous school taught us a lot but the Gracie system especially the Gracie University system offered a deep understanding of the psychology of self defense and this is invaluable for small children as well as adults. The instructor at Gracie San Jose Julius has an exquisite jiu jitsu skillset and a mastery of other fighting systems including boxing and filipino martial arts. The school also has free weights and boxing conditioning classes. What i also want to mention is the scheduling convenience. Julius offers the young kids classes at 5:30pm tues and thurs which gives me the time i need to finish work and get my son from school to the dojo. I appreciate that the adult classes are
I first checked out Gracie Jiu Jitsu East San Jose after I was nearly assaulted at my workplace. I was looking for a school that focuses on self defense, but I was very intimidated to even try learning as I’m not very strong and I don’t have much martial arts experience. My thinking was 100% wrong. Julius, the head instructor here, has been incredible and he has shown me that jiu jitsu is helpful as it focuses on technique, leverage, and energy efficiency. Don’t think that you need to be strong and have martial arts experience to come, just check it out! You won’t be disappointed. Julius is extremely knowledgeable about jiu jitsu and martial arts; he’s very patient in explaining each technique and I can tell he’s genuinely interested in seeing his students learn in a safe and friendly environment. Besides teaching techniques, I also greatly appreciate Julius’ emphasis on verbal de-escalation and other tactics to avoid a fight in the fir
My husband and I wanted to try something new. We tried a free jiu jitsu class at another gym and liked it, but we wanted to try other places before committing to a new gym. I came across Gracie jiu jitsu in East San Jose and we decided to give it a try. My husband and I are very happy with what the gym offers and the people. I really like that it has a structured curriculum that focuses on self defense. Coach Julius is amazing. He's very thorough in explaining the moves and makes sure that we do the moves correctly. Everyone we met has been very welcoming and kind. Overall, we had amazing experiences and can't wait to train and learn more about jiu jitsu!
“I can’t do it” was my son’s first response when faced with anything unknown or intimidating to him. As parents we want to help him become more confident and believe in himself. After a lot of research we decided to give Gracie jujitsu a try. Coach Julius has been awesome with our little 6 year old. The bully proof program is not just about learning a sport or how to defend yourself physically. It’s much more than that. It teaches respect for yourself and others. The coach along with the other kids in the class have been beyond patient with him since the very first class. He holds the class back during warm ups at times and it’s hard to watch as a parent but they continue to encourage him and lead by example. I appreciate them so much and have faith that someday my son will be the bigger kid encouraging a new kid in the class and doing for them what they are doing for him now. Thank you coach Julius, for all that you do.
