  • How certain techniques are 'discovered' again and again - What the basics are and why you need one tool for every range - Self defense vs competition jiu-jitsu - When butt flopping in a self defense situation is the RIGHT thing to do - Hair grab defenses for women - Law enforcement applications of BJJ - And much more

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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.
