Zingano Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

What is Brazilian Jiu Jitsu?

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a self defense system designed to work with the principles of leverage and technique instead of brutal force and strength. The main focus of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is on ground grappling, the most important but often neglected area of martial arts.

This self defense system was created to give a smaller person a real survival chance when confronting a larger opponent. Brazilian Jiu jitsu is simple, easy to learn and most important, extremely effective when it matters the most, in real life!

What makes Brazilian Jiu Jitsu different from other Martial Arts?

All martial arts have their strong points but can they survive on their own? Have they tested their skills against other martial arts? Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is different because practioners successfully tested their technique against other martial arts and fighting forms for the last 80 years.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the only self defense system that can hold its own when comparing Martial Arts styles. No other Martial Arts in the world can make this claim! We have tested our system time after time against all other Martial Arts with the same successful results:

Every opponent is taken to the ground because they don't have the necessary distance and speed to strike, and are eventually subdued because of their lack of skill. It is a fact that 90% of all fights end up in clinch and eventually on the ground, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu will give you the necessary tools to fully protect yourself in the most common type of street confrontations.

The focus of Jiu Jitsu is very simple:

To enable a person to defeat an opponent regardless of their size and without the need to use excessive force and brutality.
