*Self Defense

Brazilian Jiu-​Jitsu is a martial art and combat sport and a form of self defense that focuses on grappling and ground fighting. It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend his or herself against a bigger, stronger assailant using leverage and proper technique.

If you avoid the story-​tellers and the opinions of Internet Keyboard warriors, any Professional Bouncer or Law Enforcement Officer will attest to the likelihood of a fight ending up on the ground; with all opinions aside, the statistical fact is that most fights end up on the ground. Although it is not (always) in a fighter’s best interest to go the ground in all situations, the chances of being put there are very high.
