Wrestling is an important aspect of No Gi Jiu Jitsu (Submission Grappling) and MMA that is often undertrained by Brazilian Jiu Jitsu fighters. Try this technique in order to finish a single leg takedown when your opponent sprawls and you get stuck on your knees.

Check out this article about how a woman was able to use Brazilian Jiu Jitsu technique to stop an attempted rape by choking the attacker unconscious. The woman, a US Navy sailor, was able to use a “triangle choke” to put the rapist to sleep. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a great art for self defense and was developed to allow the smaller person to use leverage and technique to defeat a larger attacker. We are offering 30 FREE days of classes at NJ United Mixed Martial Arts to all new students looking to learn self defense. Contact us today to take advantage of this offer, 973-638-1570….
