Brazilian jiu-jitsu focuses on getting an opponent to the ground in order to neutralize possible strength or size advantages through ground fighting techniques and submission holds involving joint-locks and chokeholds. BJJ is an elite form of self-defense renowned worldwide for its effectiveness characterized by instinctive responses against common attacks. It can be learned by anyone, irrespective of gender, strength, or ability.

I took my at the time, 5 year old to Bushido and was skeptical of a little girl do Jiu-Jitsu. The instructors and older kids worked so well with her. They assured me she wouldn’t get hurt and she never did. She got in there and love it!
