The Bellevue Manila proudly announces LEGENDS ON THE MAT: Exclusive Elite Grappling Experience, a rare and historic two-day jiu-jitsu event happening on January 31 to February 1. In partnership with PHYGT, and led by two of the most influential figures in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu—Ralph Gracie and Renzo Gracie—this event is set to be one of the most significant martial arts gatherings ever held in the Philippines.
A Rare Opportunity to Train with Jiu-Jitsu Royalty
The Gracie family is globally recognized as the pioneering force behind Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), having shaped the discipline’s philosophies, techniques, and global rise. Their legacy spans nearly a century, influencing martial artists, athletes, and MMA champions worldwide.
Ralph Gracie and Renzo Gracie, both respected masters and champions, have not only competed at the highest levels but have also built some of the world’s most successful and respected jiu-jitsu academies:
- Ralph Gracie Jiu-Jitsu – known for its disciplined, competition-ready training culture
- Renzo Gracie Academy – home to world champions, UFC legends, and the world renowned Danaher Death Squad lineage
To have both Ralph and Renzo together in one training experience is extraordinarily rare, making this event a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for practitioners, fans, and athletes in the Philippines.
