When we teach weapons defense, we are trying to use the same martial arts skills that we use in unarmed combat, in weapons combat. Our techniques should not change. The movement patterns and martial arts concepts that you have been practicing for years, should be your defense.

But, when it comes to weapons defense, we find that Jiu-Jitsu tends to have the best ‘chances’ of beating a gun or defending yourself against a gun, because it is instinctual for a jiu jitsu fighter to understand how to control the body and attack the joints… this is Jiu-Jitsu.

Matt Bryers (demonstrator) has a black belt in Japanese Jujitsu (Kobukai Jujitsu) which has heavily focused on using Japanese Jujitsu in it’s purest combative form. No BS, no fluff… just what works. Matt also has a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu which teaches a higher level of grappling control and dominance. Japanese Jujitsu focuses on attacking joints and structure, while BJJ does the same, but also integrates deeper controls from any position.
