About Brazillian Jiu-Jitsu
"The fastest growing Martial Art in the world"
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is one of the most effective, reality-based fighting systems in the world. Created by the Gracie Family, the basic premise of Jiu-Jitsu is that 90% of fights end up on the ground. As such, Jiu-Jitsu is focused primarily on effective ground fighting. The goal is to put an opponent into situations on the ground where joint locks and/or chokes can be applied to force him/her to submit.
Grappling, at first, can look like a mess of entangled bodies with no clear objective to an uneducated eye. The reality is however, a cerebral game of creating traps for your opponents, testing their wits against yours. Your limitations are not defined by your strength, athleticism or weight, but instead your ability to understand the challenge in front and what is needed to overcome them.
No-Gi
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Generally faster paced than traditional Gi BJJ, with no reliance on material that can be grabbed or used for additional control. No-Gi instead requires the practitioner to use their body to form wedges in order to successfully control and submit their opponent.
No-Gi also has more of a focus on attacking and controlling the lower half of an opponents body - the legs.
​
Gi
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu taught in a traditional Martial Arts uniform called a Gi.
Gi BJJ allows you to use material to aid you in controlling and submitting your opponent. Often seen to be slower paced than No-Gi BJJ the Gi allows practitioners more time to think and plan their next moves.
