Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art that focuses on ground fighting, emphasizing leverage, angles, pressure, timing and an understanding of human anatomy to control and submit an opponent without causing harm, according to previous reporting.
Unlike other martial arts that center on strikes and kicks, Jiu-Jitsu specializes in close-quarters grappling, utilizing techniques such as joint locks and chokes to achieve a submission.
