## Description

In recent years, the grappling arts have proven to be the most effective form of combat in mixed martial arts (MMA) and no-holds-barred (NHB) competitions. Above all others, the Gracie brand of Brazilian jujitsu has become recognized as the preeminent fighting style in unarmed combat. Now Renzo Gracie—instructor; competitor; and champion of numerous grappling, MMA, and NHB events—reveals the inner workings of the art in his latest book, Mastering Jujitsu . From the origins of the art to personal techniques, you will experience the impact the Gracies have had on jujitsu and learn the strategies they have developed to dominate their opponents. Gracie shares the subtleties of the techniques necessary for mastering the art, and he clearly demonstrates the flow of movement with more than 250 high-quality photos. Not only will Mastering Jujitsu help you progress from isolated skill development techniques to a full set of tactics and fight plans, but it will also introduce you to the concept of combat phases and teach you to attack from any phase. You will learn how to react to your opponent in any situation. Whether you're caught in a bottom position or attacking from the top, Gracie reveals the key strategies designed to give you the upper hand. The depth and breadth of topics covered in Mastering Jujitsu will aid even the most experienced black belts in their understanding and execution of Brazilian jujitsu. With detailed coverage on advanced principles, you will get all the tactics, strategies, techniques, and drills you need for close combat fighting.

Review: Theory from the master - To many, this book was "Renzo's long awaited No-Gi book" If you're looking for a list of a 200 gi-less technqiues, you'll be disappointed - that book is coming later. But this book is much much more... The book starts with a history of ju jitsu. It places Brazilian jiu jitsu in the context of Judo, Japanese JuJitsu and other martial arts. It then covers the theory of jujitsu, including the various phases of fighting. This background provides a great context or framework to understand techniques. (This is analogous to the economic framework behind financial technqiues) After providing the broad context, the book delves into deeper theory on each general position, along with a few specific techniques. Again, the focus is on frameworks and how to think about positions more than a listing of techniques. The book also contains case studies on various fighters who have learned certain aspects of fighting. Although the book has a jujitsu focus, fighters from other arts such as Mark Coleman and Vanderlei Silva are highlighted. This demonstrates the broad landscape of ideas covered. In summary, this has proven to be a uniquely informative book. The authors use the medium (book versus the common tape format) to convey history and theory that is more difficult to convey in class or on a tape. It's about time that someone wrote it!
Review: Great knowledge - This book has a lot of history that I never knew. For a subject that I’m very interested in, I was surprised that I learned so much about where it came from. Completely did not expect that. Happy, I bought it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Theory from the master

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A nice explanation of BJJ strategy and tactics.
*by D***S on October 22, 2015*

Full Disclosure: I am a student of Paul Creighton who is one of Renzo Gracie's former students and is one of the models for the technique photos. This is one of my favorite BJJ books because it explains the origins of the system and how it fits into an overall strategy for sport style jiu-jitsu, MMA, and self defense. You are taught the basic techniques and, more importantly, what you are trying to accomplish and a few variations if your opponent forces you to change the plan. All phases of fighting are covered with ground fighting the obvious focus. Striking and the clinch are not glossed over because you may find it difficult to get some opponents to the ground. The techniques are solid and you would expect that from a Gracie book on jiu-jitsu. Where this book really shines for me is the theory presented with the technical aspects that give insight into the overall strategy and how to take the fight in a direction that you are comfortable with.
