Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, or BJJ is one of the fastest growing martial arts in the world today. Whilst BJJ has been around for years, it has shot to fame in the past ten years courtesy of the UFC where its unique skills, especially in the early UFC years, allowed it to dominate against all other martial arts.
Learn to Defend and Dominate
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (sometimes written as Brazilian Jujitsu) in Brisbane has grown rapidly and is becoming more and more popular. So what attracts people to BJJ? It’s a fairly unique martial art in that you spend much of the time each class on the ground ‘wrestling’ or ‘grappling’ with your opponent while trying to submit them. The aim of BJJ from a self-defence perspective is to take the attacker to the ground, the theory being that most people are only comfortable and confident standing kicking or punching, so taking them to the ground gives you as the BJJ practitioner, where you are more skilled, the advantage. Something that is unique and cool about this, is that in stand up martial arts what you think is right usually is, for example, if someone throws a punch at your head, move your head away from it! On the ground however, things are very different, what people tend to do as an untrained reflex is often the worst thing you could do and makes things even worse. The cool part is, with a little training, it’s amazing how quickly people can gain confidence on the ground and really dominate against people who haven’t done BJJ.
Get Confident and Learn to Submit
BJJ is also designed using traditional jujitsu principles and leverage, what this means from a practical standpoint, is that you don’t have to be the biggest guy or girl to make it work. No matter how big or strong you are, there’s always someone bigger and stronger, so knowing how to use technique and skill to your advantage to overcome a larger opponent levels the playing field and empowers you.
