A pioneer in the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and former world champion, Master Jean Jacques is the nephew of Grand Master Carlos Gracie Sr. (the founder of Gracie Jiu Jitsu). He was awarded a seventh degree coral belt from Master Rickson Gracie in 2011. Master Jean Jacques endeavours to pass on this pedigree of knowledge to his affiliate schools, worldwide.
Jean Jacques Machado Sydney students are fortunate to have annual visits from the Master, which ensures that our standards and culture remain at a world class level.
