Crosley Gracie was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, son of Rosley Gracie and grandson of the founder of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, Carlos Gracie. He started training at the age of 9 years old with uncle Grand Master Reylson Gracie in 1988. In 1992, he went on to train at uncle’s Carlson Gracie Academy competing in a internal tournament held the same year winning his first Jiu-Jitsu match.

In 1999, after 7 years competing and winning many jiu-jitsu tournaments in Brazil, Crosley moved to the U.S. to teach the gentle art in the USA, more specifically in San Francisco, California.

In 2003, Crosley was awarded his black belt from cousin Ralph Gracie and made his debut in MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), defeating the very experienced Welterweight Pancrase Champion, Kiuma Kunioku (29-13-7) from Japan, by unanimous decision at the Pancrase 10th Anniversary Event in Tokyo, Japan.

In his second appearance in Mixed Martial Arts competition, at the Pride Bushido 5, also in Japan, Crosley went 2-0 with an impressive submission win against highly regarded ring veteran, Hayato Mach Sakurai (30-7-2), considered to be one of the best and most exciting fighters in the world, who was never submitted in completion before.

Since moving to the U.S., Crosley has been studying Wrestling, Boxing, Muay Thai and conditioning to further improve his fighting and teaching skills. He’s been teaching Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for over 10 years and has created many local and national champions. Crosley is a dedicated and innovative instructor who strives to help his students find the key elements to have an overall healthy lifestyle and an excellent quality of life.
