Popularized by the Gracie Family, BJJ is an offshoot of Judo with an emphasis on allowing a smaller individual to subdue a larger opponent using leverage and technique to procure a variety of chokes and joint-manipulations, either forcing a tap-out, severe injury, or lack of consciousness. BJJ is considered to be an essential part of MMA and popular to the point of being taught in countless gyms across the world.
