The Black Book of Jujutsu
By Professor G. K. “Silas” Singh
IBJJF World Champion 5-Time Pan American Champion Professional Fuji BJJ Referee Sponsored Athlete

In The Black Book of Jujutsu, Professor Singh—an IBJJF World Champion, five-time Pan American Champion, and respected professional referee—presents a groundbreaking approach to mastering the art of survival, performance, and flow in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and beyond. His son Dante Singh a IBJJF, NAGA, Newbreed and FUJI Champion contributed in the writing of Chapter 4. He is a (Vale Tudo BJJ) Martial Art Instructor and FUJI BJJ sponsored competitor, referee and multimedia technician. His youthful intellect illuminates for younger age groups the remarkably comprehensive technical, tactical and physical instructionals. He succeeds in presenting the “details” rarely if ever taught BJJ practitioners. Together these two Warriors have given the martial arts community a great resource of martial energetics and performance improvement.

This book seamlessly merges the 32 principles of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu with the timeless internal teachings of Tai Chi and Traditional Chinese Medicine accupoints creating a singular curriculum designed to help practitioners of all levels understand jiu-jitsu as a science of survival for competition and combat. Through prose, illustrations, video instruction and realistic demonstration, the reader has one of the most comprehensive resource in the martial arts community. This book includes and exceeds the information content of classic BJJ literature as gifted to us by professionals like Professors S. Ribeiro, J. Danaher and the Gracie Family treasures.

Core Themes of the Book:

• Survival Through Science: Discover how to neutralize the advantages of opponents who are naturally bigger, stronger, younger, or faster. This book provides practical strategies to survive and thrive under pressure.
• Flow State and Efficiency: Learn how to achieve the perfect balance of structure, breath, and movement, cultivating a mindset that enhances performance on the mats and in daily life.
• The 32 Principles of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu: Gain a deeper understanding of concepts like leverage, timing, adaptability, and energy efficiency, blended with the subtle internal forces of Tai Chi to create fluid, unstoppable techniques.
• Inside and Outside the Academy: While tailored for performance in the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academy, the teachings here extend beyond the mats—helping you apply the principles of patience, discipline, and efficiency to every aspect of life.

Written for the dedicated martial artist, the lifelong learner, and those seeking practical mastery, The Black Book of Jujutsu elevates the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu by incorporating both ancient and modern principles.

Why This Book Stands Out:

• Authored by Professor Singh, a proven champion and professional referee with years of experience at the highest levels of competition. The case study presentations explain exactly why Jiu Jitsu is performance enhancing for athletes.
• Combines the practicality of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu with the philosophical and internal teachings of Tai Chi, creating a unique and holistic system of learning. The exacting of technical and tactical detail is unequalled in current BJJ literature.
• Presents real-world strategies for overcoming adversity, improving physical and mental performance, and achieving mastery through flow-states. The content tells a story of how one can continue to improve performance through senior years.
