Brazilian Jiujitsu Explanation . . .

I shall attempt to clarify Brazilian Jiujitsu to all of my readers out there who have stumbled upon this site and are confused. First we have the belt system, which is based on skill level white-blue-purple-brown-black.

Brazilian Jiujitsu competitors are also divided by weight class, but there is also an absolute division in which everyone of the same level is allowed to compete regardless of weight. There are two ways to compete, gi and nogi. A gi is a uniform made of very thick cotton so that it does not rip when others grab and pull. Nogi corresponds to competing without the uniform, but in shorts and a rash guard (like under armour).

All matches begin with both competitors standing, but unlike wrestling, the match does not end when someone hits the ground. In fact, jiujitsu is all about ground work, but knowing how to get someone to the ground can be helpful (judo, wrestling). You can win by submitting your opponent or by outscoring them. My instructor, Rafael Lovato Jr., is currently one of the best in the world and the greatest American in Brazilian Jiujitsu. He has learned, and constantly trains with, Saulo and Xande Ribeiro, both many time world champions.

If you live in Oklahoma City and are interested in Brazilian Jiujitsu classes, come to Lovato’s School of Brazilian Jiujitsu and MMA. Take up our 30 Day Free Trial and get started training today!

As you can see there are a lot of things you can do, and a lot of different ways to do them. It is very physical, but injuries do not happen very often - Brazilian jiujitsu means “the gentle art.
