The Ultimate Jiu Jitsu Training in Los Alamitos

What is BJJ?

BJJ or Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a unique martial art, distinguished by its ground fighting and grappling methods. The main focus of this discipline is set on using leverage to take an opponent to the ground. Once this is achieved, you can easily apply join-locks and chokeholds.

The biggest reason why this discipline is so widely popular lies in the fact that it enables weaker and smaller individuals in defeating strong and large opponents. This makes the martial art a perfect skill both for sport grappling tournaments, as well as self-defense.

Super-Adequate for Self-Defense

The majority of people in our school pick this discipline for self-defense. And they are right – Jiu Jitsu is perfect for self-defense!
Why is this?

BJJ teaches you to position and use gravity to your advantage, which will provide you with total control of the situation. For this reason, this skill allows smaller and weaker individuals to fight off heavier and stronger opponents.
This discipline uses grappling techniques, which can de-escalate the fighting situation effectively and rapidly.

“Seriously for people struggling to lose weight, its all about patience and doing what you love and have a passion for. The picture to the left is me at my biggest (260 lbs!), eating to oblivion and not doing anything about it. To the right (October, 2016), modified my lifestyle with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and eating differently, I am very proud that I am at a weight that I never recalled being at in the past. Although I am not finished with this journey, I just wanted to give you guys a little motivation!”
