#516, "Brazilian Jiu Jitsu"


          

I personally train that with a second degree black belt who was trained by the Gracie's themselves. If you don't already know of the Gracie's, they invented the brazilian form of the ancient japanese jiu jitsu. Regardless, from a brief overview of what you study in martial arts, it seems to be highly striking oriented.

BJJ is grappling oriented, working with taking fights to the ground. It works on defense, offense and submissions. As you are primarily of a striking background it would help you work what most refer to as ground and pound while also allowing you to fight back against any knowledgeable grapplers you may face in a fight.

I would highly recommend studying the art, or at least looking it over to see if it is for you. If you have any questions, ill be checking back and you can reply to the post.
