Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Brazialian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art which utilises grappling attacks, developed by the Gracie family of Brazil. The general strategy employed in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is to take the opponent to ground using throws implemented from judo, and then finish the fight using a variety of locks, holds, chokes and strikes, many of which are similar to those used in Japanese Jujutsu.
