Understanding the Human Body in Order to Break it An Introduction to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Fundamentals.

Presented at WAHCKon 2013, May 4, 2013, 11:40 a.m. (35 minutes)

Brazilian jiu jitsu shot to the top of the martial arts stack when Royce Gracie showed grappling's dominance in the very first UFCs. In the 20 years since those first events, submission grappling has continued to grow and develop and remains the best foundation for a legitimate self defence platform. Known as "the gentle art", jiu jitsu is appealing to those who value the application of movement, technique, resilience and intelligence over sheer size and brute strength.
