What is American Jiu Jitsu and how are we different than Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or IBJJF competition. The American Jiu Jitsu mindset is only on the submission. Takedown systems exist but lack the truth the submission provides. It allows smaller people to defeat bigger people and in the takedown world, this is not the norm. They live within the protections of training with equal or close to size people. We in the American Jiu Jitsu World live die and breath the submission. What we want to achieve is getting to the heart of our Art and defining it above the term “SPORT” people sacrifice so much to achieve a moment in time only they can cherish. This is why it is ART not sport, it is why people give years of their lives to learn a discipline like no other. The Art of American Jiu Jitsu is the birth of what honor means on and off the mat, for man or women, for the truth to love what you do and do what you love. American Jiu Jitsu point system works to support the fighter, the artist, and the goal of tapping your opponent as fast as possible within some cases will be called out submissions.

King of the Kill
NO Take Down Points AT ALL EVER
American Jiu Jitsu Federation takes this opportunity to give thanks and welcome other styles to be great and perfect that craft. The entire world trains from the knees, and yes we agree some start standing and it serves its purpose. American Jiu Jitsu Will allow you to start standing but, the fact is how many IBJJF matches have we all watched where people stay on the feet or stand back up. Let us get to why we are involved, we only want to see and bear witness to the submission. We do not take points or punish the athlete for bringing the fight to the ground. It is our natural element to be on the ground. No take-down points. We feel wrestling and Judo are Gods at that skill. Every Black Belt agrees, they would much rather have a student submit 10 opponets than anything else. NO Greater feeling than to submit everyone in your division. Lets put our energy into the skills that we as Jiu Jitsu artist value the “Submission”
