Jiu-jitsu Jiu-jitsu is a Japanese martial art and sport which has been heavily influenced and changed by the Gracie family's Brazilian version. It is translated as the "gentle art" and teaches the principle of flexibility in the application of technique. Skill, technique and timing, rather than the use of brute strength, are the essential ingredients for success in Jiu-jitsu. In Jiu-jitsu, you learn how to give way or redirect your opponent, rather than use force, to overcome a stronger opponent.
