Brazilian Jujitsu and Grappling

Jujutsu(柔術, jūjutsu?) ("jujitsu") literally meaning the "art of softness," or "way of yielding" is a collective name for Japanese martial art styles including unarmed and armed techniques. Jujutsu evolved among the samurai of feudal Japan as a method for defeating an armed and armored opponent without weapons. Due to the ineffectiveness of striking against an armored opponent, the most efficient methods for neutralizing an enemy took the form of pins, joint locks, and throws. These techniques were developed around the principle of using an attacker's energy against him, rather than directly opposing it.

Brazilian Jujitsu is a modern and well developed martial art by Gracie family and the most efficient style of fighting especially on the ground. We are happy to have one of the best BJJ instructors on our side to make USA KAIZEN MMA a soon to be one of the most popular schools of mixed martial arts in the region. 

MMA

The undeniable fact is that every martial art style is only practical in a certain situation.  For example, Jujitsu, wrestling or grappling are not practical styles against multiple attackers and stand up styles are not as efficient as Jujitsu when the fight ends up on the ground.  At USA KAIZEN MMA, we unite all these different style and techniques in our training program to make you a well rounded mixed martial artist.  So don’t wait any longer, join us today and start your journey!
