Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ)
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling with the ultimate goal being to gain a dominant position on an opponent and use various chokeholds and joint locks to force them to submit. The overriding principle in this sport is leverage and technique thus giving a smaller, weaker person a huge advantage over a stronger opponent with less training experience.
Jiu Jitsu can be trained for self defence, grappling tournaments and mixed martial arts competition. Controlled sparring and live drilling play a major role in every class thus ensuring progress in the sport occurs rapidly.
