Karate vs. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a grappling martial art. It teaches one how to control one’s opponent on the feet, before taking them down and beating them there. In that sense, Karate is the polar opposite. The martial art focuses on fighting on the feet and includes punches, kicks, and various other strikes.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or “BJJ” teaches you how to safely take down a bigger, stronger opponent or get them off of you in grappling situations on the ground, which is where most self defense situations end up. BJJ is most commonly known for submission holds like strangles, armlocks and leglocks, wich are the finishing techniques that render opponents unable to continue fighting.

Our goal at Acadiana Jiu Jitsu is to use BJJ submissions rather than striking an opponent (like in Karate which could cause significant or permanent damage) to end a fight or altercation. this maximizes the effectiveness of martial arts without anyone getting seriously hurt.
