If it’s not Gracie, it’s not Jiu Jitsu.

Thank you for this. I wish I would have crossed paths with this info when I was younger. So I'm grateful for the younger crowd that they have this info available.

TVD Epic Love says:

I love your advice. I also love your demonstration videos as well. I also love your hair, Gracie. How did you do that? Something I have always wanted to do is join a kickboxing class, would that help me in self-defense as well??

Celeste Peña says:

Yeah Victoria. I love your posts on IG

Celeste Peña says:

I could teach a lot of this. Not the BJJ because i am too new. But i was homeless for a lot of my life and learned how to survive some bad situations.
In fact I plan to. Self defense is so much more than physical tactics.

Jiu-jitsu doesn't work in street fights.
