Why Law Enforcement and First Responders Should Train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

Every shift, police officers, deputies, corrections officers, paramedics, and firefighters walk into situations most people spend their lives avoiding. They respond to calls where people are frightened, intoxicated, in mental health crisis, or actively resisting. And while body cameras, de-escalation training, and policy reform get much of the public attention, one of the most practical tools a first responder can carry has nothing to do with equipment. It's a skill set built on the mats.
