What Our BJJ Students Are Saying
What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art focused on grappling, utilizing principles of leverage, balance, joint manipulation and technique to control opponents. This makes it a highly effective self-defense method suitable for individuals of various strengths and sizes.
Originating in Brazil in the early 1900s, BJJ gained worldwide attention in 1993 when Royce Gracie showcased its effectiveness by defeating much larger opponents in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) without throwing a single strike.
At Zingano BJJ Brighton, we carry on this legacy by teaching proven techniques in a safe and structured environment. Whether you’re interested in learning the art of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu or general self-defense, we ensure every student receives premium instruction.
