In real world physical altercations, the fight almost always ends up on the ground. If you are the bottom person, your punches and kicks have no effect while your assailant will be able to rain elbows and knees onto you, causing you severe physical and even emotional damage. Could this have been avoided? Could you have defended myself better?

     ~Enter the art of Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu~

​

     Fundamentally, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, often shortened BJJ, is the art of ground grappling with the goal of submitting your opponent by using leverage, pressure, joint locks, and control. Not only is this much safer than stand up striking (still very important to have at your disposal!) but size becomes even less of a factor. That's right! Smaller practitioners of this art are just as formidable, if not even more dangerous, than larger opponents who have little to no practice in wrestling or BJJ. In this art, it really is about brain over brawn.
