Looking to train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Cambridge?
Awesome! On this page, you’ll discover everything you need to know about starting our BJJ classes…
What Is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu?
First up, what is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu? Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art that uses leverage and applied pressure to control your opponent. This allows a smaller weaker individual to defend themselves against a much larger, stronger attacker.
Sounds cool, right? OK, that’s not the most exciting description, but the most important thing you need to know about BJJ is it’s a tonne of fun and it’ll help you grow in a tonne of ways you’d never expect.
