Rio Grappling Club / Brazilian jiu-Jitsu Nelspruit

Rio Grappling Club is a martial arts team with a network that extends across 4 continents (Africa, Asia, America and Europe). It is led by Roberto Atalla 5th-degree black belt and Mauro Chueng 4th-degree black belt both under Master Sergio Bolao Souza (black belt under Carlson Gracie Sr).
Brazilian jiu-jitsu is a martial art and combat sport system that focuses on grappling with particular emphasis on ground fighting.
BJJ is founded on the concept that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger, heavier opponent. This is done by using technique, leverage, and most notably, taking the fight to the ground, and then applying joint locks and chokeholds to defeat the opponent. BJJ training can be used for sport grappling tournaments and in self-defense situations. Sparring (commonly referred to as “rolling” within the BJJ community) and live drilling play a major role in training and the practitioner’s development. BJJ is considered a martial art, a sport, a method for promoting physical fitness and building character, and a way of life.
