What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and who is it for?

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a grappling martial art with no striking. It uses leverage, body position and submissions, so technique matters more than strength. At AllStar Martial Arts in Union, NJ, adults 16 and up of every level can train, and beginners are welcome.

How BJJ works

You learn to control a partner on the ground, escape bad positions and finish with submissions. Tapping stops the action immediately, so training stays controlled.

Who trains at AllStar

  • Adults 16 and up, all levels
  • Women train in the same classes as men
  • Students in their 50s and 60s
  • Kids through Cubs (ages 4 to 6) and Lions (ages 7 to 13)

Do I have to compete?

No. Competing is optional, and most adults never compete.

More quick answers

Is there striking in BJJ?
