What is Jiu Jitsu?
Jiu-Jitsu translate to ‘gentle art.’ In no way is this art gentle on the person who might try to harm us or our loved ones (though it can be, if we choose it to be). It is very gentle on the person defending from an attack. This means no matter your size, strength, or build, you will be able to defend yourself. You can ask any of our students what ‘Jiu Jitsu’ means, and you will get a different answer from each. But, ‘gentle art’ is the technically correct translation.
