MORE ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on ground fighting and submission grappling. It emphasizes the skill of controlling an opponent through techniques that allow a smaller, weaker person to defend against a larger attacker by applying joint locks and chokeholds.

BJJ training typically involves techniques that teach practitioners how to take their opponents to the ground and gain dominant positions, allowing them to apply submissions or control their opponent's movement. The practice is structured around sparring sessions known as "rolling," where students can test their skills against one another in a controlled environment.

Originating from traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, BJJ was developed in Brazil in the early 20th century and has since evolved into a widely practiced martial art, with applications in self-defense, sport competition, and mixed martial arts (MMA). The philosophy behind BJJ emphasizes leverage, technique, and strategy over brute strength, making it accessible to individuals of various ages and physical abilities.
