Why Even Train Sport BJJ if Jiu-jitsu is for Self-Defense?

Recently I got a question regarding Sport BJJ and Self-Defense. The question was from someone who doesn’t train Brazilian Jiu-jitsu yet. And they said that they didn’t understand why you practice a sport BJJ style technique for an art that prides itself on self-defense.

In this video I share some ideas on why people in Jiu-jitsu practice sport style techniques even though it may not be the best option for self-defense.

I also share why in a lot of cases what keeps people training is not the self-defense techniques but rather the connection to people formed through the sport training.

Again, this is my opinion and experience. If you’ve been training for a long time you’re more than welcome to share yours in the comments below.
