Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting with the goal of gaining dominant position by using chokeholds and joint locks in order to submit your opponent. It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using leverage and proper technique can successfully defend themselves against a bigger individual. BJJ permits a wide variety of techniques to take the fight to the ground after taking a grip. Once, your opponent is on the ground, a number of maneuvers are available to manipulate your opponent into a submission. Achieving a dominant position on the ground is one of the hallmarks of BJJ , and includes effective use of the guard position to defend oneself from bottom, and passing the guard to dominate from top position with side control, mount, and back mount positions.
