It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger assailant. Gaining superior position on your opponent and applying a myriad of chokes, holds, locks and joint manipulations is the foundation for this effective martial art. BJJ can be trained for self defense, sport grappling tournaments (gi and no-gi) and mixed martial arts (MMA) competition. This grappling art is also great for women's self-defense and protection against sexual assault. BJJ gives you an excellent workout which improves balance, coordination, cardiovascular capacity, and muscular endurance. Training usually begins with warm-up stretches and calisthenics, then a series of grappling drills, followed by technique instruction, and finally sparring. Christiano L. Pereira Bertolucci Fighthouse Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Head Instructor If you're looking for an excellent trainer, Christiano will show you techniques that will prove highly effective in the realm of BJJ, including closed guard and back attacks, arm and leg locks, side control attacks, submission from almost every position, and much more.
