I must’ve been living under a rock to have never heard of CarJitsu let alone them having a Championship events.

I saw CarJitsu Championship this morning while surfing on my TV on the Stadium Stream Channel.

Here’s what I know about this unusual and unique sport…

Carjitsu is a competitive grappling sport that takes place inside a vehicle. The sport was created by Vik Mikheev, a Russian graduate student at Kansas State University who is a black belt in Brazilian jiujitsu and judo. The goal of the sport is to submit your opponent by choking them or forcing them to extend a limb. If the match is too close, points are awarded for dominant positions, such as back control or top position.

Combatants appear to be from varying grappling experiences and backgrounds. 

Matches are 3 minutes long and 1 round. The car they grapple in is a Toyota Sienna. Poor car takes a beating as well.

Makes a lot of sense because one never knows when they’ll have to defend themselves inside of a car.

The network seems to be PLN, Pro League Network.

Has anyone been following this sport and if so perhaps can give us more information and details.

:-)

**Proof is on the floor!!!

Years ago we had a new student come in and ask if we knew any self-defense techniques against a drive by shooting.  If I had known about CarJitsu I would have recommend he go train over there.

I'm curious as to what he thought would be your answer concerning a drive-by. 

Martial arts training is 30% classroom training, 70% solo training.

I don't know, I think the guy was a nut.  He only lasted about two weeks then we never saw him again.  Everyone thought he was weird.
