BJJ Techniques
The basic BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU technique is called the guard. It is a technique that requires you to lie on your back and keep your opponent between your legs. The rationale is to use your hips and legs to prevent the opponent from pinning you down
A Brazilian jiu jitsu school will train you to use your legs and hips first while on your back, to keep your opponent at bay while constantly looking for an opening to launch an attack from the ground. Most of the time, you will find two BJJ opponents in a match constantly attacking for a superior position first before executing their Brazilian Jiu Jitsu techniques.
You will learn many BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU techniques from the guard, helping you to sweep, control, and lock and attack your opponent while you are on your back. These techniques can be carried out with your opponent standing, on his knees or lying down
One of the best things about BJJ techniques is that they are practice against resisting opponents; more lessons will ensure a much quicker mastery of these techniques with a certainty that it will work when applied. A Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school will allow you to learn all of the relevant moves required. The main aim of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is to promote “aliveness” in BJJ arts training. It is recommended for anyone serious about self defence to cross-train in BJJ for at least a year. BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU techniques might not look martial or pretty, but it works and that's all that matters.
