Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is an evolution of the japanese martial arts of jujutsu and judo. The martial art was introduced to North America from the Gracies and made famous by the early UFC and MMA competitions. Since then, BJJ itself has evolved quite a bit to become a suitable martial arts and fitness regimen for people from all walks of life and physical abilities.
