BJJ IS A MARTIAL ART! I know that might be a shock to many of you and that it can be hard to hear something so contentious but the truth is the truth. Brazilian jiu-jitsu is a fight science, used for stopping and when necessary injuring a person who is intent on doing you grave harm.
Granted it is also a marvelous sport, a wonderful fitness regimen, and a great way to interact socially with a great community of people. However, never lose sight that first and foremost being able to take care of yourself in the street is priority number one for training! Mastering the basics of BJJ and being able to execute the techniques when punches are flying at you is far more vital than working inverted transitions from guard.
