Why should I expect from Jiu Jitsu class, compared to Judo?

I have been in Judo class for 1 month now, I notice there%26#039;s a jiu jitsu class somewhere else and its on saturday so its interesting and I%26#039;m gonna try it. What should I expect compard to Judo?





I like Judo a lot, I notice though that choking and joint locks haven%26#039;t been taught to me in Judo, I asked some of my classmates and they told me thats for the advanced belts.|||Jiu Jitsu= groundfight 95% takedowns 5% (usually the same one)


You should expect to learn a lot of chokes, armbars, reversals and so on, they may use diferent names for the same thing in Judo. Ask for details, because a litle diference in positioning may do a lot of diference. Dont be shy to tap when submited





As a practioner of judo i think that is a shame that many judo clubs don麓t teach as much groundfighting as they should. Because judo competion emphasis on takedowns and to dont show lack of knowledge. Sometimes judo black belts have crappy groundwork and get sub by novice jjs. When this happens it is good to crosstraining with specialists that only do that.|||Judo comes from jiu-jitsu, but jiu-jitsu nowadays is more envolved, We, brasilians, created the gracie jiu-jitsu more efficient, however there is a groundfight in Jud么, the name is newasa. A very good video of newasa:

Good luck in your classes!|||Very similar, yet there is actually a lot more in jujitsu then in judo.|||More chokes, locks. Better ground offense and defense.|||You should expect lots and lots of live sparring or %26quot;rolling%26quot; and a heavy focus on conditioning. The biggest difference is that BJJ does not focus heavily on takedowns and instead emphasizes groundwork and submissions.





Most BJJ classes are about 2 hours long and consist of:


- a warm-up (light jogging and calisthenics)


- several variations of a technique, practiced against a resisting opponent


- some sort of conditioning exercises (ex: two people will alternate trying to pass your guard w/o being submitted for a set amount of time)


- interval training: rolling against many different opponents for a set amount of time each
