Jiu Jitsu Questions

[CrONoS]

Is there anyone who have practice Jiu Jitsu?

Next week, I'll began to practice Jiu Jitsu at my university dojo with one of my friends.

I want to know if it's easy to be injured in Jiu Jitsu?(younger, I had my arm bones fractured)

Is this a good combat(fight?) sport?

[Pekka]

BJJ is good. Pick it up instead.

Reading the webpage of my "future" Dojo, it's Brazillian Jiu Jitsu!

I know that all martial arts are practical in real life fight(since it help you develop; speed, tactics, position, etc), but do you if BJJ can be useful in real life fight?

[Pekka]

Great. One of the very best choices you could ever make. Sounds cool, that you have that at your Uni, too.

Hopefully you'll enjoy it

"I know that all martial arts are practical in real life fight"

BS.


"if BJJ can be useful in real life fight?"

YES!

To give you a hint, BJJ is "the style" when it comes to, for example mixed martial arts. People who can't do BJJ, can't compete in todays world of no holds barred fighting. It's a simple fact, usually people combine that BJJ with some striking style, and they're set. But for submissions, ground fighting etc.. BJJ, and nothing else will be a substitute.

Don't worry though, you can get into BJJ fairly easy, you won't learn stuff that isn't useful, and against anyone who isn't an actual fighter, you'll do well even with just BJJ. At least against all the McDojo people, who will be in for a rude awakening.

What "no holds barred" fighting? It doesn't exist. Otherwise every match would end with the BJJ practitioner being kneed in the head when he tries to take his opponent down...

Yes, I exaggerate. Just don't take BJJ and think it makes you invincible.

[Pekka]

Of course it doesn't make you invincible or any kidn of complete fighter.

Nice way to start an argument though, what you are doing is arguing about semantics, where we both agree, but yet you seem to want to start some crap. Go home, Straybow-san, the world can survive without you!

I would like to learn how to fight with whips, imagine, a thieve tries to rob you, and you surprise him with a whip in the face

My sister broke both her arms from falling badly after beig thrown in jiu jitsu. You're probably not silly like her... I hope.

awareness, agility, strenght, speed, self-confidence, and fight technics can only help you when facing danger, or when you have no choice to defend someone or yourself.

whats the difference, every martial arts have whored out strength and weakness from each other so much in hybrid form these days u cant tell them apart if it wasnt for public display of silly appearance stances.

@Zero
Excuse me, but
What is your point? Is it good for self-defense, yes or no?

[Zkribbler]

Jiu Jitsu is based upon using leverage...throwing you opponent, stuff like that. There are no blows that I know of.
