Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is regarded by many around the world as the #1 martial art for self-defense, it focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting. BJJ promotes the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend against a bigger, stronger assailant by using proper technique, leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground, and then applying joint-locks and chokeholds to defeat the opponent.

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. It is a full-contact combat sport that allows the use of both striking and grappling techniques, both standing and on the ground, from a variety of other combat sports and martial arts. The beauty and complexity of MMA is that to become a well-rounded Mixed Martial Artist, you must utilize all martial arts effectively and efficiently together.
