Why surf & jiu-jitsu?
Jiu-jitsu and surfing have always had many similarities and shared practitioners. Jiu jitsu is a popular choice among surfers looking to train physically and psychologically while not in the water. Both will put your strength, flexibility, endurance, balance, and coordination to the test whether on your mat or board. You can’t just muscle your way to victory in either jiu jitsu or surfing; it takes a total effort. Level up your surf skills on the mat.

About Gracie Jiu-Jitsu
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is one of the most effective, reality-based fighting systems in the world. Created by the Gracie Family, the basic premise of Jiu-Jitsu is that 90% of fights end up on the ground. As such, Jiu-Jitsu is focused primarily on effective ground fighting. The goal is to put an opponent into situations on the ground where joint locks and/or chokes can be applied to force him/her to submit.
