What sets Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) apart from every other martial art and fighting style? It’s the clever and crafty way that a BJJ practitioner can set up traps for his opponent without the need for strength, power or a size advantage. It’s the fact that one wrong move against a trained BJJ student can spell the end for you.
Watch the competitor in the White gi (uniform) as he sets up a sneaky choke that renders his opponent (who happens to be the 2013 Pan American Champion AND a Gracie family member) unconscious- despite being on top in a dominant position.
This is what makes Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu unique, a smaller person (man or woman) can defeat a larger, stronger opponent using the unpredictable set-ups and traps you can set.
