| The Difference?
So, what is the difference between BJJ and Gracie Jiu Jitsu?
Sorry if I kept this too short, I just don't think here's anything else to say.

The Gracie's have sex appeal.

Not a thing. Gracie Jiu Jitsu is the exact same thing. Helio Gracie took Japanese Jiu Jitsu, and focused mainly on the ground technique, not the takedowns, and just called it Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, a.k.a. Gracie Jiu Jitsu.
The only true difference is "Gracie" Jiu Jitsu, should be taught by someone who has a black belt, directly from a Gracie. (I think the number is less then 50)

What BJJ I do know is from Machado JJ and its not much different than Gracie (maybe more a preference to butterfly guard). I suppose its like Japanese Judo and Russian Judo. Same art, just some small differences.
