10 Gracie Games (demonstrated by MMA Girl)
- 7 years ago
MMA Girl began her MMA and Jiu Jitsu experience by learning the ten Gracie Games that are taught in the Gracie Academy to everyone under the age of sixteen.
These games taught her the fundamental movements that would be important later, helping her to prepare for her for more complex techniques.
Teaching Gracie Games is a great way to build a child's confidence in learning Jiu Jitsu, without driving them away. Without the pressure of getting the techniques right, and instead simply having fun, kids develop a sense of excitement toward learning Jiu Jitsu, rather than feeling overwhelmed by the work required to master the art.
