Rickson Gracie today announced that he would be releasing his life’s memoirs in a book called ‘Breathe’ which is released in August this year. The book claims it will talk about his life in martial arts, from fighting in the streets of Brazil, to winning MMA championships in Japan. It will also focus on the philosophical principles that Rickson Gracie has lived by. If you know Rickson, you will understand that he is very big on mentality and living in the correct way…which is one of the reasons why he was such a great martial artist.
For those wondering, the name for the book is called ‘Breathe’ due to his amazing breathing techniques which helped him win many fights. As you can see on the front cover, his breathing methods are extremely precise and allow him to breathe and think clearly when fighting. It is also perhaps a spin on his previous documentary ‘Choke’ which is obviously the direct opposite of breathing in terms of how your body functions. If you’re a fan of Rickson Gracie, BJJ or MMA then this cannot be missed.
Breathe can be pre-ordered here.
