About the differences between Brazilian jiu Jitsu for sports and for self-defense. The fundamental difference is that in Brazilian jiu jitsu applied to self-defense, the aim is to play on top and never pull guard. We seek to close the distance while defending punches and kicks, perform a clinch and takedown that allows us to fall on the attacker and establish dominant positions (side control, mount or back) The fundamental objective is control and submission with the least possible damage. That's why strangulations such as the Mata Leon and The Arm Triangle are especially effective.  

About Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense The application of Brazilian jitsu in the context of self-defense is subject to many debates and points of view, we share ours here and it is what we transmit and expect from our students. First of all, we consider that Brazilian jiu jitsu is a personal defense system for situations of aggression by an attacker without weapons. We think that bjj  should always be applied as a defense and not as a form of aggression. The fundamental objective will always be to defend ourselves and control an attacker, producing the least injuries. For this reason, we will avoid punches, kicks and joint locks as much as possible, and we will seek to obtain positions of absolute control of the attacker so that he cannot attack us by hitting, kicking or other means. We must avoid dangerous projections that can cause serious injuries and even death to the attacker and look for takedowns that allow us to fall on top of the opponent, preferably in the mount, gain...

About how the fights begin in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu The fights in brazilian jiu jitsu (in sparring and in competition) begin standing, although in some gyms and circumstances people decide to pull guard quickly or go to seated guard while training. You should know that in competition you are not allowed to pull guard without any grip. That is why we highly recommend starting every fight standing even at gym sparring. This will help you get accustomed to always begin standing, defending the takedowns, guard pulls or working yourself in these areas.
