What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?
BJJ is a grappling-based martial art that focuses on ground fighting and submission holds. It was developed in Brazil in the early 20th century by the Gracie family, who modified traditional Japanese jiu-jitsu techniques to create a more effective self-defence system.The beauty of BJJ lies in its adaptability – regardless of your size, strength, or athletic ability, you can learn techniques that allow you to defend yourself against larger, stronger opponents.
