Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is one of the most effective forms of martial arts for self-defense and fitness. It originated in Japan and was later developed and popularized in Brazil, particularly by the Gracie family. BJJ is known for its emphasis on leverage and technique, allowing a smaller, weaker person to successfully defend themselves against a larger opponent.
