Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art and combat sport that focuses on grappling and especially ground fighting with the goal of gaining a dominant position and using joint-locks and chokeholds to force an opponent to submit. It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person using the appropriate amount of leverage and proper technique can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger attacker.

In keeping with the spirit of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the Boise academy welcomes men, women and kids interested in learning BJJ as a hobby, self-defense or competition. Please note: This is not MMA style Jiu-Jitsu and techniques will be performed wearing a Gi.
