My wife and I recently moved from Torrance, California where the first Gracie Jiu Jitsu school opened in the United States. I watched my first Jiu Jitsu class in 2001, both Rorion and Helio Gracie were instructing the class. I ended up starting Jiu Jitsu with the Gracie’s cousins, the Machado Brothers who also had a school in Torrance. I received my Blue Belt from Rigan and my Purple Belt from Roger Machado. I mentioned all that just to compliment Renzo Gracie Clarksville. My last 5 years training were at Gracie University with Ryron and Rener Gracie, the grandkids of Helio Gracie, so I was really worried about where I could train once I moved to Clarksville. My Realtor recommended Renzo Gracie Clarksville. I came and watched Professor James Hoskins teach a class of white belts. I was so impressed that I told my wife that we should sign up here. In less than a month, I have already learned a lot even though I have been training Jiu Jitsu for over 20 years. What I always enjoy the most about learning Jiu Jitsu is the friendships I make. I already feel at home here at Renzo Gracie Clarksville. This has also helped me deal with the stress of moving/missing my family and friends....
