Clark Gracie Jiu-Jitsu

Clark Gracie is a member of the family synonymous with the art of Jiu Jitsu. He’s a brown belt with the Clark Gracie Team, four-time national Jiu Jitsu champions. Clark was trained under his father, Carley Gracie, who is known today as one of the most technical instructors in the discipline. Clark Gracie has found a home here at the La Jolla Health Fitness Gym, where he is the resident Jiu Jitsu instructor.

Jiu Jitsu is the art and skill of controlling and resisting opponents in ways that force them to submit. Because the majority of physical confrontations end up on the ground, combined with the fact that control is generally easier on the ground, much of the technique of Jiu Jitsu focuses on taking the opponent down to the ground with the idea of leveraging dominant control positions that render the opponent helpless.
