There are many martial arts out there, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. But there are several reasons that make Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu stand out among the rest.
First, its self-defence benefits. BJJ is one of the most effective systems of self-defence you can learn. The proof of that claim is that the art’s techniques are taught to law enforcement officers around the world, as well as militaries including the United States’.
Second, its mixed-martial arts credentials. BJJ was proven to be arguably the most effective martial art during the early UFC years. Today, the UFC pits martial artists who have mastered several disciplines against one another. Initially, the UFC pitted an expert from one martial art against an expert of another. The result? Dominance by Royce Gracie, a Brazilain Jiu-Jitsu black belt.
Finally, fitness. People often think they don’t have the discipline to exercise regularly, but often the problem is the exercise they’re doing. Running and weight lifting are both good for you, but they’re improbable to keep up if you’re bored by them. BJJ is an excellent full body workout, but it’s also fun. You’ll get healthier doing exercise that’s not a chore.
