Brazilian jiu-jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that focuses primarily on grappling and ground techniques. With its roots in Japanese Judo and Kano Jiu-Jitsu, jiu-jitsu was adapted and developed to be an efficient method of self-defence for smaller individuals against larger opponents. In jiu-jitsu, practitioners aim to take the fight to the ground, where they can use leverage and technique to overcome their opponents. Joint locks and choke holds are commonly used to submit or force opponents to tap out.

Aside from practical self-defence skills, BJJ offers numerous benefits including physical fitness, increased confidence, and character building. For many practitioners, BJJ is not just an art, but a way of life. It provides a platform for personal growth and self-improvement both on and off the mat.

PURE JIUJITSU boasts a team of exceptional instructors, each with their own unique expertise and teaching style. Professor Arya Esfandmaz is widely regarded as one of the top European black belts in jiu-jitsu and is known for his incredible technique and individual attention to each student.
