First off, it would be helpful to know that Jiu Jitsu goes by a number of different names or titles, including: Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, BJJ, Grappling or Submission Grappling, to name the most frequently used ones.
Jiu Jitsu is a combat sport or martial art where the objective is to have your opponent ‘tap’ or concede defeat through the use of submissions that include joint locks and strangles. The founding premise of Jiu Jitsu is that it is a system devised for smaller, weaker individuals to defeat larger ones by exploiting leverage through refined technique.
There are many, many benefits and compelling arguments as to why one should train BJJ. It’s incredibly fun, offers a phenomenal workout, equips individuals with a valuable life skill and will provide a community of new friendships and relationships.
