Teen/Adult Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Grappling

While many martial art disciplines incorporate grappling here and there, when it comes to BJJ, grappling is at the core of all of your training. Not familiar with grappling? Here’s what you need to know – instead of utilizing weapons or striking, grappling is all about getting your opponent to concede through physical dominance. The rules and techniques of grappling vary depending on whether one is practicing Gi or No-Gi Jiu Jitsu, as well as whether it’s being done in a sport or self-defense style. When grappling in BJJ, you’ll spend the majority of your time fighting from the ground and will likely utilize many different types of chokes.

Self-Defense

Made for the real world, BJJ is a form of self-defense that every person should master. BJJ focuses on ground-level altercations – utilizing holds, throws, blows, and a variety of submission techniques. This makes Jiu Jitsu ideal when learning how to take on an opponent who may be larger than you, without necessarily having to hurt them.

Fitness

When you think of working out, you probably think of running on the treadmill or lifting weights at the gym, right? Well, it’s time to expand your perspective. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is one of the best ways to get in shape and it’s more engaging than anything you’ll find in the gym. Physically, BJJ has been shown to help athletes lose weight, tone their muscles, gain newfound strengths, and sharpen their reflexes. Mentally and emotionally, BJJ boasts benefits in mental health, reduced stress levels, increased self-confidence, and a feeling of empowerment.

No Gi Jiu Jitsu

No Gi Jiu-Jitsu, also known as submission grappling or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, is gaining popularity for self-defense. It differs from traditional Jiu-Jitsu by not using a gi, relying instead on body control.

Without the gi, practitioners can train in various environments, suitable for self-defense, MMA, and fitness. No Gi Jiu-Jitsu emphasizes speed and athleticism, requiring practitioners to use their own strength for control.

It’s crucial for grappling and MMA competitions, such as ADCC (Abu Dhabi Combat Club) and EBI (Eddie Bravo Invitational), many of which are gi-free. No Gi Jiu-Jitsu is effective for self-defense, fitness, and competition, appealing to martial arts enthusiasts of all levels.
