“The Great In Between: An Introduction To Jiu Jitsu,” a Maynard James Keenan-hosted introduction to the dynamic sport of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, debuts on December 13 via Puscifertv.com.

Filmed at the Verde Valley Brazilian Jiu Jitsu academy in Cottonwood, Ariz., the 90-minute class offers a hands-on seminar tailored for beginners and the Jiu Jitsu-curious. Led by Keenan and a group of skilled black belts, the team guides viewers through the essential development of stabilizing muscles and myelin connections, building a foundation for success in this confidence-building, puzzle-solving martial art.

“You can do this,” Keenan says. “We’ve got your back. Not literally. But we can also teach you how to get us off your back. See what I did there?”

Pre-orders of the film, which is available as a 72-hour rental, and various commemorative merch bundles, are available now via Puscifertv.com. A Cyber Monday special is available today only, featuring a 20% discount on bundles over $50 with the code VVBJJ24 (limit one per customer).

“The Great In Between: An Introduction To Jiu Jitsu” was directed by Chris Staab and features music by Puscifer.

About Verde Valley Brazilian Jiu Jitsu:

The Verde Valley Brazilian Jiu Jitsu studio, located at 1100 S. AZ-260 in Cottonwood, Arizona, was founded by Maynard James Keenan. The academy offers a wide range of classes for all ages and experience levels, with a mission to preserve and share the fundamentals of martial arts. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, much like life itself, is a journey – a path filled with obstacles that are worth overcoming. It’s a journey of self-discovery. Verde Valley BJJ was established to serve as a starting point for those journeys, for self-defense, competitive sport, and physical, mental, and spiritual development.
