Gracie Humaitá Austin

History runs deep here: Gracie Humaita was the first Brazilian jiu-jitsu academy in the world, founded by Helio Gracie and his brothers in 1920s Rio de Janeiro, and Gracie Humaita Austin brings that lineage to Central Texas. Leading the local branch is Professor Paulo ‘Coelho’ Brandao, graded by Royler Gracie and a black belt world champion at the very first World Jiu-Jitsu Championship in 1996.
