About the Business

In 1914 Mitsuo Maeda, a Japanese Judo and Jiu-Jitsu master came to Brazil. In return for help from the Brazilian politician Gastao Gracie, Maeda taught Judo and Jiu-Jitsu to Gastao's son Carlos, who in turn taught the art to his brothers. Helio Gracie, the youngest of the brothers was unable to train according to doctor's recommendations, as he was naturally weak and frail.
