Grappling.
Ground. Mastery.
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was made popular in the early 90s when the UFC was created to answer a simple question: what is the most effective martial art? BJJ won decisively.
BJJ focuses on grappling and ground fighting, teaching that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger opponent through leverage, technique, and joint locks or chokeholds.
