If you are completely new to martial arts, you might find this video clip helpful. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt and World Champion Leandro Issa from Evolve MMA gives a brief introduction to the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is one of the most effective, reality-based fighting systems in the world. The basic premise of BJJ is that 90% of fights end up on the ground. As such, BJJ is focused primarily on effective ground fighting. The goal is to put an opponent into situations on the ground where joint locks and/or chokes can be applied to force him/her to submit.
