Certified Instruction
Gracie Jiu-jitsu, or Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ) as it’s commonly called, is one of the fastest growing martial arts on the planet, but the success of your jiu-jitsu journey will rely heavily on the culture of the school you attend and instructional methods utilized by your teachers. We are very proud to inform you that all of our certified instructors have undergone extensive training to ensure that you are provided with the best possible learning environment on your path to jiu-jitsu mastery.
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Mukilteo has a proud lineage and Affiliation with the Pedro Sauer Association. We are the ONLY certified training center in the Mukilteo area. Affiliation means that the rank you receive is recognized and backed by Master Pedro Sauer which places you directly in the Gracie Jiu‐Jitsu lineage.
The Pedro Sauer Brazilian Jiu‐Jitsu Association was founded by Master Pedro Sauer, 8th degree black belt under Grandmaster Helio Gracie and Rickson Gracie. He was the first black belt awarded from Grandmaster Helio who was not named Gracie. Professor Sauer is regarded by many to be one of the most technical Jiu‐Jitsu instructors in the world.

Structured Learning
Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is for everyone, but only if taught correctly. While most BJJ schools have taken a “one-size-fits-all” approach to teaching the art, we have gone to great lengths to create specific programs for each demographic: Jiu-Jitsu Kids (ages 5-12), Women’s Self-defense for the ladies, Street Ready Gracie Jiu-Jitsu for beginner adults, and the Fundamentals Class for advanced practitioners. Each program adheres to a set curriculum, so students know exactly what they will learn before they come to class. Every student is issued an attendance card on which we track daily progress, so they can see how much you’ve accomplished and exactly what it will take to move on to the next level. In a martial art where confusion and frustration are extremely common, we’ve gone to great lengths to ensure that you will enjoy the highly-structured and encouraging approach only found at a certified Gracie Jiu-jitsu center.
Safe Training Environment
At our school, safety is the number one priority. In far too many BJJ schools, the classes are structured to meet the needs of the most elite students. If you are a beginner student, you are expected to serve as a “grappling dummy” for those above you. The thought process is, if you avoid injury, and stick around long enough, you will eventually figure it out. At our school we take the opposite approach. Firstly, there is no competitive sparring in our beginner programs. As a result, you will have a chance to learn all the beginner techniques in a fully-cooperative environment, with like-minded training partners. Once you move on to the advanced program, and you begin sparring, you will have the benefit of working with training partners, of every skill level, who are working with you rather than against you. This culture of collaboration and mutual benefit is extremely rare in jiu-jitsu, and we go to great lengths to make sure it is upheld.
