What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? Jiu-Jitsu was originally developed in Japan during the Feudal period. Many different variations of the art took shape—including Karate, Aikido, and Judo. Soon the Samurai began to fade into history as the gun replaced the sword. It wasn't until the sport art of Judo and the combat art of Jiu-Jitsu were introduced to the Gracie family in Brazil in 1915 that the real art of Jiu-Jitsu would be brought to life and transformed into the style we now refer to as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
