About Carlson Gracie Gainesville
Carlson Gracie Gainesville is an adults-only Brazilian jiu-jitsu academy in Gainesville, Florida, founded and led by Dr. Craig Sainz — a second-degree black belt under Rinaldo Dos Santos in the Carlson Gracie lineage and a Doctor of Chiropractic. The programme is pitched at longevity rather than competition: joint-sparing mechanics, heavy drilling and control-based strategy, explicitly with no pressure to compete. Six adult fundamentals classes run each week, gi on Monday/Wednesday/Friday and no-gi on Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday, and the academy publishes a free library of technique videos taught by Sainz.
