Episode 70. The Gracie Legacy & 100 Years of Jiu-Jitsu
The conversation
About Kroyler Gracie.
Kroyler Gracie sat down for Kumite Lifestyle. That conversation is episode 70, “The Gracie Legacy & 100 Years of Jiu-Jitsu”.
Kroyler is a member of the Gracie family whose home base is Elkhart, Indiana, where he has lived and taught for almost 20 years. He has a sister school and a couple of affiliates in Michigan.
He grew up with his grandfather, and he teaches five days a week. Nick met him at a seminar in Delaware years ago and still uses a back-control detail Kroyler taught that day.
Kroyler describes himself as a more centered Gracie who keeps his head down and studies jiu-jitsu. He talks about balancing self-defense and sport, and why helping your training partners grow helps you improve.
