Many of us daydream of getting to use our jiu jitsu in a real life scenario. But what if it does not go how you planned? You truly do not know what anyone is capable of. We challenge the romanticized notion of jiu-jitsu in self-defense by discussing the stark reality of facing armed opponents. Our conversation reflects on how training may not actually help you in the streets.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
