Description
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a guide to the most efficient and devastating techniques in popular martial arts by World Champion and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu legend Alexandre Paiva. The book contains over 1,000 full-color photographs demonstrating the moves that made the author the most feared competitor in BJJ circles and now one of the most sought-after instructors. Jiu-Jitsu or Jujutsu came into prominence in the early 90's when jiu-jitsu expert Royce Gracie won the first, second, and fourth Ultimate Fighting Championships against much larger opponents who were using other styles such as boxing, muay thai, karate, and wrestling. Since then it has become one of the most popular methods in MMA due to its focus on ground fighting. Learn the techniques that have proven dominant in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournaments and the Mixed Martial Arts cage: Takedowns The Closed Guard Passing The Closed Guard Butterfly Guard Open Guard Pass Side Control Half Guard Back Mount With sections devoted to both gi and no-gi techniques, whether training for a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu tournament or a Mixed Martial Arts fight, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is one book no true competitor can afford to miss.

Easy to follow instructions
Bought for my nine year old who has been doing jiu-jitsu for a year and a half... it has instructions as picture steps... you can see every step in a move which makes it easy to understand.

Great book to add to your training library
Lots of pictures, step by step breakdowns of techniques, a lot of information. That, is the con as well; A LOT of information. This is a great book as a supplement to actual training. No amount of pictures can give you the subtle nuances of actual instruction and live rolling.However, this book is a GREAT visual and mental aid to stay sharp.

Editor needs help with his rights and lefts descriptions
Specifically, got for the no Gi sections. Having to correct a lot of mistakes (ie. Lefts vs rights) of the picture descriptions. A LOT. Great book otherwise.

Crisp photos, bad explanation
The book is amazing with the photos and some explanation. However, it is hard to follow. I am new at Jui Jitsu and want to get better and I thought this book would help. But it is a struggle to follow step my step.

Clear concise step by step
Good step by step guide. Especially once you get comfortable and familiar with the basics. A good resource to go back and study details of techniques you may have missed in your class.

Brilliant
I have been trying to get a good book on BJJ for Kindle. Usually the pictures and graphics are too small, low quality and difficult to read. In this ebook the quality of photographs is great attention to detail has been given. Wonderful book. Highly recommended.

Libro interessante
Il volume contiene ottime foto ed una dettagliata spiegazione in lingua inglese ovviamente non può sostituire un corso tenuttenuto da una persona qualificata

Must-have
Really solid Jiu-jitsu book. Really good photos and a massive list of techniques. I've already used a few techniques while sparring and caught some people out. Highly recommended for Gi and No-Gi grapplers.
