Effective self defense requires training against resistance. Jiu-Jitsu is practiced live, making it realistic.
Many real altercations involve close contact or ground engagement. Jiu-Jitsu specializes in:
• escaping holds
• reversing bad positions
• controlling larger opponents
• neutralizing threats safely
It does not depend on striking power. It relies on leverage and positioning.
For practical protection skills, Jiu-Jitsu offers tested solutions.
