Karateka_latino Posted August 25, 2001 Posted August 25, 2001 All i see is ground fighting on BJJ. I've seen that Japanese JJ have stand up techniques and Atemi. But i haven't seen much on BJJ. do they train stand up techniques? its seems like they aren't used to teach them or ppl aren't interest on Stand up BJJ techniques.,
Prodigy-Child Posted August 25, 2001 Posted August 25, 2001 if you watch some of the gracies and their fighters fight they seem to be alright with fighting on their feet so i guess they probobly do have some stand up techniques....... but maybe i am wrong You can boo me if you want, You know I'm right!-Chris Rock
thaiboxerken Posted August 25, 2001 Posted August 25, 2001 Yes there is stand-up techinique in Brazillian Jujitsu, there are throws, standing chokes and locks and also strikes. The Brazillians just specialize in ground fighting because they feel that the ground it the ultimate equalizer. The little guy has a much better chance of beating a bigger person on the ground because it gets much more technical. And that's, about the art Just kick 'em, they'll understand.- Me Apprentice Instructor under Guro Inosanto in Jun Fan Gung Fu and Filipinno Martial arts.Certified Instructor of Frank Cucci's Linxx system of martial arts.
Angus Posted August 27, 2001 Posted August 27, 2001 "and that's about the art" couldn't resist could ya Ken!? Angus Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.
Wooly Posted January 16, 2002 Posted January 16, 2002 There is alot of "stand up" BJJ! Wrist locks. arm bars, chokes...all done from a standing position...but I prefer the ground!
Slider Posted January 16, 2002 Posted January 16, 2002 As far as I know...BJJ trains only for ground fighting. My buddy spends maybe a total of about 30 secs on his feet, then its rolling on the mat for the duration of the match. Hasta!! Slider Check out "Koldsteel" Enterprises.

jiu-jitsu fighter Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 WE CAN'T FORGET WHERE BJJ CAME FROM FROM JUDO AND JU-JUTSU, THERE ARE PLENTY OF TAKEDOWNS AND SUBMISSIONS FROM STANDING "When we go to the ground,you are in my world, the ground is the ocean, I am the shark,and most people don't even know how to swim"
Venezolano Posted January 4, 2003 Posted January 4, 2003 BJJ is focused to groundfighting, but it does have stand up techniques (throws, etc), but in many schools there are instructors that don't teach them and put all the time to ground fighting Valencia - Venezuela.
jiu-jitsu fighter Posted January 4, 2003 Posted January 4, 2003 thats true and those instructors are killing the art in my school when the instructor feels that we aren't getting enough stand up, he brings in a judo sempai to work on our takedowns and takedown defenses, but yes , that is how bjj playes think, they want to go to the ground thats why they spend so much time there to have a far superiour advantage "When we go to the ground,you are in my world, the ground is the ocean, I am the shark,and most people don't even know how to swim"
