Why is American Jiu Jitsu better than other martial arts at MIT?
It isn’t. No martial art is ‘better’ than another! Each person must find their own favorite art. Anyone who claims that one martial art is truly superior to another martial art is not a true martial artist. Anyone who studies an art, in the hopes of becoming skillful in that art and does so with their full heart and spirit is truly an amazing individual. American Jiu Jitsu focuses on self defense. If you are interested in learning self defense, then American Jiu Jitsu may be for you. However, we always suggest that you look at all your options while at MIT… there are lots of them… to make sure you find the environment, the art, and the people that you want to learn with and from.
