![]() | Jj is jujutsu, an art from medieval Japan. Nowadays, there are hundreds of styles, some cling to a more traditional (i.e. medieval) style, some have modernized their approach for self defence or law-enforcement use. Bjj is a Brazilian style, it focuses heavily on groundwork. Vee is just one of the many modern styles. What's in common with jj styles is the foundation on old Japanese techniques but some have gone a long way to distance themselves from that heritage. Actually, you might consider judo a style of jj as well, it was based on jj techniques. Judo focuses on groundwork too.
