Sport vs Self Defense BJJ, Is There Really a Difference?

My good friend Stephan Kesting of GrappleArts debates between 'sport' and 'self defense' BJJ has been overblown because good jiu-jitsu is always better than bad jiu-jitsu. If your focus is on self defense then find the best BJJ school you can and, if necessary, supplement that training with a little bit of boxing, kickboxing or MMA.

The debate between 'sport' and 'self defense' BJJ has been overblown because good jiu-jitsu is always better than bad jiu-jitsu. If your focus is on self defense then find the best BJJ school you can and, if necessary, supplement that training with a little bit of boxing, kickboxing or MMA training to become comfortable in the striking zone rather than going to a lesser school that claims to teach special 'self defense' BJJ techniques.
