Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ)
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is one of the most effective, reality-based fighting systems in the world. The basic premise of BJJ is that 90% of fights end up on the ground. As such, BJJ is focused primarily on effective ground fighting. The goal is to put an opponent into situations on the ground where joint locks and/or chokes can be applied to force him/her to submit.
Setting you up for some seriously rewarding training
There are lots of BJJ academies in Rio, but not all are particularly accessible to gringos (that people from outside of Brazil!) Finding the right training school, where communication is easy, and you will not get ripped off can be a bit of a lottery.
Fortunately our partners have been there and done it all, they are westerns with over 8 years of experience of training in Rio, who have settled to develop their BJJ skills with the top martial artists in their field. Having learnt the pitfalls and mistakes first hand, ensures you will not encounter the same problems, just world class training from Black belt masters
