Week 12 Gracie Barra Jiu-Jitsu Training Curriculum

Published on

4 min read

In week 12 we move on to some great self defense techniques from stand up position and then we learn turtle guard and taking the back on the ground game. 

GB1 – In our fundamentals class we learn to defend the bear hug both from the front and the back. This is a common attack position for a bully or assailant.  When the game hits the ground we learn how to protect ourselves in turtle guard as well as how to attack someone when they are in the turtle. You will learn a choke from top position over turtle, how to take the back and how to finish from the back in a rear collar and rear naked choke. 

GBK – Our kids will also learn how to defend from a bear hug and a rear choke. On the ground game the kids will practice controlling from the mount position, how to take the back as well as a few submissions. 

GB3 – In our advanced curriculum, our professors will lend some keen insight about foot throws as well as some awesome submissions from the ground. 

As we have said in the past, every week is a good week to begin at Gracie Barra Centennial Jiu-Jitsu. And, there is not a week you want to miss as an advanced practitioner. See you on the mats.
