Details: So what is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art, sport, and self-defense method from Brazil that evolved from Japanese jiu-jitsu and judo at the turn of the 20th century. Unlike modern sport judo or traditional jiu-jitsu which emphasize stand up locks and throws, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu focuses on the ground game - how to defeat an opponent when the fight goes to the ground. What makes Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu such a formidable self-defense method is its emphasis on training against a resisting partner. While other self-defense methods use cooperative training methods (you do this, I do that - sort of like a dance), in BJJ you train against someone who is resisting your technique in every single class. So, there's no faking skill in BJJ - you either know it, or you don't. And did I happen to mention that jiu-jitsu is a great workout? It's not uncommon for our students to start BJJ classes and lose 10, 20, or 30 pounds or more over the course of their first six months in classes.
