Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Torrance is part of Gracie University Headquarters, which offers structured Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu programs for kids and adults, including a confidence-building program for kids ages 3–15, with kids organized into specific age groups up to 15. The academy offers a 10-day risk-free trial with unlimited access during that period. Gracie University Headquarters is led by Rener Gracie and Ryron Gracie, grandsons of Grand Master Hélio Gracie. In 1978, Hélio’s son, Rorion Gracie, brought this vision to the United States and established the original Gracie Academy in Torrance, California. The mission of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Torrance states a commitment to helping people of all ages and experience levels build confidence, strength, and real-world self-defense skills, and to honoring Grandmaster Hélio Gracie’s legacy through accessible, safety-first jiu-jitsu programs for every demographic.
Parent and student testimonials describe experiences at the academy, including statements that jiu-jitsu “makes me confident” and “helps with bullying,” that the gym feels like a place where a student is not at risk of being injured, and that classes are taught in a way that breaks techniques down into “how to” steps. One parent reports enrolling a child who had been bullied at school and says that the child is now friends with the bullies. Other testimonials describe jiu-jitsu and the gym as a “really safe space to learn these moves” and say that training there has led to positive changes in other areas of life.
