The greatest success in submission grappling have come from Brazilian jiu-jitsu backgrounds, and of those no one has surpassed Royler Gracie. Not ony has the 145-pound Royler won three ADCC titles, but he also has pioneered techniques that have given him an unbelievable string of successes against opponents of all sizes, from 200-pound jiu-jitsu champions to 300-pound behemoths. In Submission Grappling Techniques, Royler spills his secrets for the first time.
Submission Grappling Techniques includes 103 positions designed specifically for the slippery, fast-paced unpredictable world of no-gi grappling. It offers Royler's tips on successful combination moves, garnered from his more than 300 fights, as well as advice on training routines, mental stamina, and avoiding injuries. If you come from a jiu-jitsu background, you will want his guidelines on how to adjust your game when you have no gi to grab. If you come from judo, sambo, wrestling, or any other martial art, you will want to get the goods from the master who has defeated the other champions.

Considered the most techncically profcient Brazilian jiu-jitsu fighter of all time, he has won the world title four times, along with many national titles. In no-gi fighting, he has won the ADCC World Submission Wrestling Championship an unprecendented three years, along with victories in Pride, Vale Tudo, 21st Century Warriors, and many more.

He is the author or coauthor of four of the most successful martial arts books in recent years: The Gracie Way, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: Theory and Techniques, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Self-Defense Techniques, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt Techniques.
