What is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu?

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ, or Grappling) has been proven over and over again, not only in ring but in real combat situations to be the best. BJJ was developed from the original form of Jiu Jitsu in Japan. Brought to Brazilian and introduce to Helio Gracie, who later turned it into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Using the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger attackers by using leverage and proper technique – mostly gaining better position and then applying joint-locks and choke holds to defeat the other person.

How good is BJJ on the street?

Stats show that 95% of all street fights end up on the ground. So the fact is if you don’t know how to defend yourself on the ground, then you don’t know how to defend yourself at all. This is used By Police Officers: Pay close attention to when police officers make an arrests, they’re trained to use Jiu Jitsu when taking down and control a suspect.
