Brazilian Jiujitsu is a strong combative art that evolved from the art of Japanese Jiujitsu in the early 1900’s. Helio Gracie is responsible for the development of Brazilian Jiujitsu and the tradition of dependable functional-based techniques have been handed down to his sons who are well-known across the world for their mastery of the art. Simplicity and having the ability to work against a larger person are the trademarks of this art that is constantly evolving.
