We train not for competition. We train for LIFE.
Don’t forget to bring your Gi and your No-Gi gear to training, starting today (Tuesday, 1 May). We’ll be getting a mix of both to help people prepare for their MMA fights, as well as the World Championships, coming up in a month.
This is the time when we need to come together as a team and support each other. Do your best to be on the mats during training times (T, Th, Sun), so that we can be there to propel each other forward.
Technique days are for ourselves.
TRAINING DAYS ARE FOR THE TEAM.
ONE TEAM. ONE FAMILY. ONE LEGACY.
Jason Petitte will be fighting THIS SATURDAY, May 5th on the Cage Quest card in Seguin, TX (45 min from Austin). He’s been training incredibly hard and is feeling better than he’s ever felt for a fight.
He’ll be repping Gracie Humaitá Austin in the cage, and the ENTIRE TEAM will be there to support him!
Tickets are on sale THIS WEEK at the academy. COME DURING CLASS TIMES to pick up your ticket.
We will ALL be there on Saturday to support him. Clear your schedules and be there with us. We’ll be repping our team and supporting Jason as he shows the world what he’s capable of. What a great way to celebrate Cinco de Mayo! Doors open at 6pm. Fights start at 7:30; so there will be PLENTY of time to get back to Austin to celebrate the day, especially after Jason comes back with the W!!!
ONE TEAM. ONE FAMILY. ONE LEGACY.
WAR JASON PETITTE!
Check it out, family. The new Gracie Humaitá Austin stickers just arrived at GHA HQ today, and they look GREAT! We were so excited, we had to take a pic and post it here. 5 x 5in. stickers with the old school logo emblazoned on the center. Old school since pre school, baby!!!
Make sure to pick yours up today and show your academy pride. Where should you put it, you ask? How about on your car? Absolutely. Laptop? For sure. On the cover of your notebook / training log? Perfect. Whatever works for you, but know that when you rock this sticker, you’re repping this team.
ONE TEAM | ONE FAMILY | ONE LEGACY.
GRACIE HUMAITÁ AUSTIN.
ONE.
We took a small team of competitors this weekend to the Texas State Grappling Championships in Cedar Park, TX. The tournament was organized by FightToWin MMA promotions and hosted over 860 competitors across a number of divisions.
Gracie Humaitá represented well. The team came home with 7 medals. We’re all very proud of the team’s performance and even more encouraged by the lessons we learned in competition. Quick results are below. Some photos can be found HERE, but more photos, video and a tournament write-up will come in the next few days. Stay tuned.

Also, a big shout out to Dennis Kim, who is now competing with another team (but will always be part of our family), put on a great display of technique and heart, winning a number of his matches.
Finally, huge thanks to Shama Ko (www.skophoto.com) for taking photos of many of the matches. Great having a talented photographer on the team.
12pm – 12:45pm: ON RAMP – we will have structured positional sparring.
1pm – 2:30pm: FUNDAMENTALS – we will have open mat / sparring.

There aren’t many words to say after experiencing this Saturday’s seminar with Master Royler Gracie other than, “Holy Shiznit”!!! It was mind blowing! The seminar was three
hours of self-defense, sport Jiu-Jitsu, transitions, submissions, positions, fundamentals, advanced moves and much more.
It was inspiring to see fifty people on the mats at one time from five different schools coming together to learn and better themselves through the teachings of Master Royler Gracie. Royler’s larger than life presence and fluidity on the mats was captivating. His record and the legacy of champions he has bred, is a testament to his level of dedication and passion for Jiu-Jitsu. Royler’s charismatic nature and humorous disposition made for an upbeat and fun atmosphere. Royler has perhaps the most striking resemblance to his father and also possesses the same loving spirit of all the Gracie’s I’ve met so far. It is this same love that has been passed on and brings us all together within our Jiu-Jitsu communities.
The TEAM RASHGUARDS have just been manufactured by the Gracie Humaitá Store.
And guess what???
We just cleared out the whole stock.
ALL OF IT.
Pretty much every remaining rash guard they have is now on its way to us. These are exceptionally HIGH QUALITY rash guards – dye sublimated (not screen-printed, so no cracking after washing), with very durable stitching.
Don’t forget, family! Royler Gracie will be in Austin, teaching private lessons and a 3-hour Gi seminar at Gracie Humaitá Austin (828 Airport Boulevard) next Saturday, April 7th.
The seminar will be at 11:30am and will cover both competition-oriented Jiu-Jitsu, as well as Gracie Self-Defense. Check out the video message from Royler below, and check out the details for the seminar as well. Pre-registration is required, SEE YOU THERE!
We will officially begin taking new students starting January 1, 2012.
