FAQs

BJJ is a ground-based martial art that uses leverage and technique to control or submit an opponent. Designed to enable smaller individuals to defend themselves against larger ones, it’s highly effective for self-defense and is widely practiced in competitive circles.
Beyond self-defense, jiu jitsu enhances fitness, reduces stress, builds confidence, and fosters a sense of community. Many people come for the martial art and stay because of how it transforms their physical and mental well-being.
