Brazilian jiu-jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on ground fighting. It advocates the concept that a smaller and weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger, heavier opponent by using the correct technique, leverage and most importantly taking the fight to the ground. The main focus is on joint-locks and chokeholds while strikes of any form are avoided. A black belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu takes more than several years to earn.
