Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) was founded and developed by the Gracie Family. Its roots are derived from several sources, including pre-war Kodokan Judo and western wrestling. An aim of BJJ is to bring an opponent to the ground and then use grappling techniques to cause a submission. It is an excellent form of self-defense, and is used in MMA and Vale Tudo competitions, such as UFC and the now defunct Pride FC.
