About Us
Jiu Jitsu is a grappling-based martial art developed in Japan during the Middle Ages and popularized by the Brazilians in the 20th Century – specifically, the Gracie family. Though initially used on the samurai battlefield, jiu jitsu found its place in contemporary society to empower individuals in self-defense scenarios.
Jiu jitsu is a grappling martial art focusing on submitting your opponent through joint locks, chokes, and pins. Jiu Jitsu also teaches you how to escape these attacks in a safe and controlled environment. Modern jiu jitsu practitioners have taken the martial art beyond self-defense and developed it into a combat sport with point systems and regulations.
