# CARLOS GRACIE Sr. CUP > Competition in Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand | July 27, 2024 – July 28, 2024 ## Overview **Event Type:** Competition **Description:** Carlos Gracie, a scion of the illustrious Gracie Family, is celebrated as the first family member to immerse himself in the art of Jiu-Jitsu. His journey into this martial discipline was initiated under the tutelage of Master Maeda, a Japanese Jiu-Jitsu expert. The decision to introduce young Carlos to Maeda was driven by his inherent hyperactivity, a trait that was noticeably prominent in his energetic and strong-willed character. Under Maeda's guidance, Carlos Gracie's initial foray into Jiu-Jitsu commenced, marking a pivotal chapter in the history of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. For three years, he immersed himself in the intricate techniques and principles of Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, laying the foundation for his future contributions to the art.
