TRaditional jiu-jitsu

Created by the Samurai of feudal Japan, the traditional schools of Jiu-Jitsu (spelled "Jujutsu" in Japanese) evolved on the many battlefields of a warrior culture. The sole occupation of these legendary warriors was the cultivation and application of combative skill. Because of their practical usefulness in real-world combative scenarios, these techniques are still practiced today by police, military, and private security professionals around the world. Traditional Jiu-Jitsu uses joint locks, throws, strikes, chokes, and grappling techniques to subdue and control an attacker, achieving maximal results while expending minimal energy. Judo, Aikido, and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu all stem from the roots of Japanese Jiu-Jitsu. Other modern arts such as Krav Maga, Sambo, and many military hand-to-hand systems also borrow extensively from Jiu-Jitsu.

Gracie Jiu-Jitsu

Gracie Jiu-Jitsu is arguably the most widely practiced martial art in the world today. Despite the popularity of competitive Jiu-Jitsu and MMA, the art was created for the purpose of self-defense. Grandmaster Helio Gracie was only 140 pounds when he created the modern art of Jiu-Jitsu. After training in traditional Ju-Jutsu and Judo with his stronger, more athletic brother, Carlos, he felt the techniques needed to be adapted to suit his weaker stature. This new evolution of Ju-Jutsu soon came to be known as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Its focus was exhausting opponents while conserving the practitioner's energy, allowing him to easily escape an attack, or subdue an assailant with a choke or joint lock. 
The Gracie Combatives adult Jiu-Jitsu program in Baltimore, MD​ promises students street readiness in as few as 23 classes. In these classes, students will learn the 36 essential techniques of Gracie Self-Defense. For some, these classes will be the perfect supplement to their traditional training.
