Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Combat Progressions

Simply put, you win by submission. All manner of armlocks and wristlocks are allowed, as well as chokes, straight leg and ankle locks and the toe hold. Neck cranks, finger locks and twisting leglocks are banned.

 

If you don't win by submission in the allotted time then the match goes to points. The points reward your attempts to progress towards positions that are closer and closer to establishing a submission hold. You have to get through these phases of combat in order to win points in Brazilian Jiu-jistu Tournaments:

 

1. "Throw" your opponent to the ground. 2 POINTS.

2. "Pass The Guard" 3 POINTS, meaning get around your opponent's legs and maintain control from the side for 3 seconds.

 

Grappling/Submission Fighting
Clinch Fighting

3. If you are pulling guard then "Sweep" your opponent by rolling him or her over and getting on top. 2 POINTS.  

4. "Control" your opponent. In MMA or in real combat, you can strike your opponent into submission or worse. If you have his or her back, get your hooks (heels) into the inner thigh area and work a rear choke.

 

Knee on Belly control for 3 seconds: 2 POINTS.

 

Progress from knee on belly to full mount control.

 

Mount for 3 seconds: 4 POINTS.

 

Now, as your opponent tries to turn onto his or her stomach to turtle out of the mount, you take...

Back Control for 3 seconds: 4 POINTS.

North South
North South Control

It only counts if you get BOTH heels inside your opponent's inner thighs. It doesn't matter whether you are both face up or face down - you still get 4 points.

 

*If you are being controlled, you need to "Escape".

5. Finish your opponent at any time by applying a "submission" technique such as a choke, joint lock, or even a crushing pin. IMMEDIATE VICTORY.

Rear Naked Choke
Rear Naked Choke (RNC)


*If you are being submitted, defend against it and escape from it. If you cannot do either, then "tap out".

 

*Every position of control must be held for at least 3 seconds to qualify for points.

Sometimes you can skip a phase of combat if you are clever or if your opponent makes your job easy for you, but you have to be ready to fight your way through all.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

History

 

From Judo to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu


Judo is won by submission, 25 second pin or throw clean to the back keeping control. Partial points are given for less effective throws and shorter pins. The partial points are used to determine a winner if the time runs out. The scores are for moves that have been proven most useful in self-defence situations yet are still safe enough to be done on mats.

 

Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is won by submission, but has a points system to determine a winner if match time has run out. The points system is based on progressing to a position of more control from a position of less control. The points are meant to reward the kind of grappling moves that are most useful in progressing you towards gaining a submission hold.

 

Judo began as a very rough and violent activity in late 19th Century Japan 6 years after the banning of the carrying of swords.  Interest in traditional weaponry understandably dropped to almost nil as a result of the sword-carrying ban, and the interest of the Japanese people shifted to that of unarmed fighting methods.  The same ardent desire for prowess in weaponry was now applied to developing skill in unarmed combat.  Judo combines the samurai art of Jiu-jitsu with concepts drawn from Japanese swordsmanship and Western wrestling, as a method of steeling the Japanese people's bodies and minds for legal self-defence and for war. Due to too much emphasis on ground grappling, leading to almost utter neglect of standing fighting which is necessary for self-defence, battle and law-enforcement, rules were instituted in the 1920s to place more emphasis on standing techniques, in a roughly 50-50% ratio. A judo throw onto concrete, solid ground, down a flight of stairs, off a ledge or onto a hard object like a fire hydrant can end a fight instantly, and that was the reason given for this emphasis. Therefore, in judo practice groundfighting training is balanced equally with standing-fight training in typical judo training halls in a 50-50 split. At some clubs, the emphasis is traditionally very strongly in favour of groundfighting.  Judo is now one of the world's most popular sports, martial arts and methods of self-defence.

In 1970s Brazil, 6th Degree Judo Black Belt Helio Gracie and his brother Carlos developed unique rules, based on their experience in vale tudo (mixed martial arts) fights, that emphasize ground techniques and at the same time promote movement on the ground, by awarding points for transitional ground techniques and for short pins. These unique and novel rules solved the problem of stagnation on the ground by encouraging the player in the dominant position to keep transitioning to new moves instead of just keeping the stronger position he had already attained on the ground. These rules marked the differentiation of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu from Judo, creating a new sport. The rules are known as "Brazilian Jiu-jitsu" outside of Brazil. The no gi form was begun in the 1990s. Both have a very wide following throughout the world. There is roughly a 90-10% emphasis on ground techniques in this system. The highest ranked Brazilian Jiu-jitsu fighter and trainer in Canada is Marcus Soares, 7th Dan, (who is also a judo black belt with an excellent competitive career in judo as well.) Mauricio "Tinguinha" Mariano, 3rd Dan, is a pioneer in reducing the vast array of BJJ techniques to an effective, teachable system as well as being a highly decorated BJJ champion! He is our club's professional mentor for the sport.
Training in both Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and Judo together is a popular way to master the art grappling in Brazil and around the world: Judo for the throws and a top-oriented control and submissions game on the ground, and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for almost complete focus on groundfighting. One pioneer in this approach outside of Brazil is the world renowned judo and BJJ champion Dave Camarillo.
