jiujitsu
Brazilian mat combat
Jiujitsu is a Japanese martial art focused on grappling, joint locks, and throws rather than strikes.
The techniques allow a smaller person to defeat a larger opponent by using leverage and body mechanics.
Brazilian jiujitsu, developed in the 20th century, emphasizes ground fighting and submission holds: She trains jiujitsu three times a week.
Also spelled jujitsu or jiu-jitsu.
