Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - The Rules of the Game - Paperback

by Ana Gloria Yagües Molina (Author), Sabine Deviche (Illustrator)

A clear, straightforward explanation of the most important rules of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, specifically and specially written and illustrated for kids of all ages.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - The Rules of the Game is based on the IBJJF rule set only. This book does not attempt to describe every single detail of every single rule (there are far too many specific situations and nuances to describe here!). Rather, this book is meant to generate interest and enthusiasm in brazilian jiu jitsu competitors, and help kids (and their supportive friends and family members!) understand the most important rules and most important positions in a match.

The material covered in this book is broken down into clear, simple sections and explained without any complex terminology, so that a person with no previous experience in the sport could read it and gain a basic understanding of how Brazilian Jiu Jitsu works.

Color illustrations will accompany the text on most pages to help clarify the important concepts and position.

The reading level of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu - The Rules of the Game is simple enough to be understood by kids of age 8+ when read on their own, and suitable for even younger children if read together with an older sibling or parent.
