Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ)

Home Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ)

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is regarded by many around the world as the #1 martial art for self-defense, it focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant by using proper technique, leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground, and then applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat the opponent.

BJJ training can be used for sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition or self-defense. Sparring (commonly referred to as “rolling”) and live drilling play a major role in training, and preparation for competition. New students are never pressured to roll when just beginning their BJJ training, but encouraged after learning the fundamentals.
