Brazilian jiu Jitsu, American Jiu Jitsu? // Something I don’t know if many americans realize is that the jiu jitsu we do in competition was brought here from brazil! In the early 2000s the brazilians came to america and brought their jiu jitsu knowledge! Basically we were like a project to the brazilian people to spread their sport to us!! Brazil not only dominates jiu jitsu, but has accomplished something else, they have successfully expanded jiu jitsu now to so many different countries and now there are starting to be champions in these countries. I feel like what I represent in jiu jitsu, is the success of brazil’s expansion of jiu jitsu into america. Most of my coaches were brazilian from a young age so I feel when I am successful in competition, I am not against the brazilians, actually the opposite, when I succeed I show their success in spreading jiu jitsu to the world. The success of Brazil to make jiu jitsu international! That is why things like “American jiu jitsu,” I really don’t like. In reality we are all doing Brazilian jiu jitsu, and we are all a part of their project. Thank you Brazil and the brazilian people for bringing to the US the sport that I fell in love with. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is the name of the sport! We are Americans in the sport of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I am very proud to be American, but I am also proud to be practicing a Brazilian sport called Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. ❤️🇺🇸🇧🇷.

🇧🇷 American Jiu Jitsu?! ?? Algo q n sei se muitos pessoas dos EUA percebem é q o jiu jitsu q fazemos nas competições foi trazido do Brasil pra cá! No início dos anos 2000 os brasileiros vieram pros EUA e trouxeram seus conhecimentos de jiu jitsu! Basicamente éramos tipo um projeto pro povo brasileiro divulgar seu esporte para nós !! O Brasil n apenas domina o jiu jitsu, mas conquistou algo mais, eles expandiram o jiu jitsu com sucesso agr pra tantos países diferentes e agr tão começando a ser campeões nesses países. Acho q oq represento no jiu jitsu é o sucesso da expansão do jiu jitsu no Brasil pro EUA. MAIS NOS COMENTÁRIOS ⬇️😊
