The concrete description of Gracie Jiu Jitsu

JIU jitsu practitioners in Brazil often practice throwing technique, upper suppression technique, back control technique, surrender technique based on various favorable positions and escape technique from unfavorable positions.

Various defensive postures in the low position are the biggest characteristics that distinguish Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from wrestling martial arts such as judo, Sambo and wrestling. The so-called "defensive posture" refers to all kinds of postures in which you control the opponent's body with your legs and fight back when the opponent falls to the ground. The defense in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is mainly divided into three categories: open defense, closed defense and semi-defensive posture. Corresponding to the defensive posture is the guard passing technique, that is, getting rid of the control of the opponent's low defensive posture to gain a favorable position-they are like two sides of a coin, which constitutes the conversion system of offensive and defensive techniques in Brazilian jujitsu competition.
