That’s our position off the week…Triangles are among the best expressions of the ideal of Jiu jitsu – to use the strongest element of your body (legs and hips) against a weaker element of your opponents body (head and shoulder) in a way that can end a bout (strangulation plus joint locks). In addition, constant practice with triangles builds a dexterity and skill into your legs that has great carry over into other skill areas. Perhaps most importantly it creates a mindset within you that seeks always to make your legs rather than upper body the centerpiece of your game. The vast majority of your strength and endurance is in your legs – the more you play with that simple insight in mind, the more successful you will be

Gracie Jiu-Jitsu (GJJ) is both a martial art involving self-defence and a combat sport system. It focuses on grappling with a particular emphasis on ground fighting. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is founded on the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger and heavier opponent by using technique, leverage – and crucially – taking the fight to the ground. Joint locks and choke-holds are then utilized to defeat the opponent.
GJJ is considered a martial art, a sport, a method for promoting physical fitness and building character, and also a way of life. GJJ teaches skills that encourage personal development including respect, honor, loyalty and commitment, all the while enforcing a strong moral and ethical code. It improves confidence, patience, situational awareness, mental strength and the ability to think clearly and decisively under pressure.
