To have a black belt under Carlson Gracie, Sr. in Maui is a big thing. Carlson Gracie is one of the biggest names in Jiu-Jitsu, his schools are some of the most traditional Jiu-Jitsu and MMA schools in the world.
This is a great opportunity for the people of Maui to train with the best and to learn from a 3rd degree black belt who trained with Carlson Gracie, Sr. himself.
There are several training disciplines offered at Christian Kennedy-Grandi’s Carlson Gracie Jiu Jitsu Maui including traditional Jiu-Jitsu and MMA (Mixed Martial Arts).
Mr. Grandi offers training for beginners, self-defense, and competition level students. Mr. Grandi’s students call him master, but he prefers to consider himself a student. Even with nearly 2 decades of experience under his black belt, Mr. Grandi still believes there is so much to learn – not just about Jiu-Jitsu, but about life.
The Carslon Gracie team has trained many champions directly under Carlson Gracie Sr. and indirectly under Carlson Gracie’s students. Many of the best MMA fighters are athletes who have been trained by direct students of Carlson Gracie Sr.
