Three Great (and Free) Android Jiu Jitsu Apps For Beginners
Plenty of different forms of self-defense and offense have existed and served as popular ways to be both strong and fit since the dawn of mankind. While the techniques and moves can vary widely, the common goal of each is to empower the individual and ensure that they are confident, well-prepared and capable of fending off unwanted advances, attacks of other negative interactions. As technology continues to play a bigger and bigger role in our daily lives, it should come as no surprise that the merger of traditional forms of combat fighting with mobile applications is increasing in popularity. One of these combat styles, jiu jitsu, has found its way into dozens of different applications. Below, we will discuss three jiu jitsu applications for Android devices and what each can offer its users.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
Most people will have a desire at some point or another to engage in some form of combat training: whether it is because it is great exercise, a needed defense against unwanted situations or an enjoyable hobby, it can be a valuable skill set to have. Those who wish to begin learning more about jiu jitsu will find the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu app a valuable ally. Included in the app are five different levels of techniques that range from beginner moves to advanced, competition and miscellaneous techniques. The multi-view presentation mode is a great way to learn the intricate details of each move, as it displays the technique from the front, side and above. Anyone who wants to experiment with jiu jitsu but does not want to commit to a costly class can benefit from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

NoGi Jiu Jitsu
With so many different combat fighting styles out there, many wish to experiment with a few before making any long-term commitment on a particular style. In the past, this was more difficult as the videos, demonstrations and knowledge of each was often only obtainable through a source that requested upfront payment. The NoGi Jiu Jitsu application is designed to be a showcase of various jiu jitsu techniques, each of which is offered in more detailed (and paid) applications. Users can explore Brazilian jiu jitsu combinations, choke holds, armbars and leglocks in order to see how the overall style of jiu jitsu works. If you feel that jiu jitsu is right for you, then you can purchase each application and subsequently access all of them via the NoGi Jiu Jitsu interface.

BJJ Flow
Offered as a comprehensive training resource for jiu jitsu, BJJ Flow combines dozens of different techniques into one simple interface. Users will be able to browse submissions, passes, sweeps, recoveries, escapes and takedowns, with each move clearly labeled and supported via video presentations. Flow charts are included that help users determine what is the best response to a particular jiu jitsu attack, and a news outlet built-in allows anyone to see the latest events in the world of combat training and fighting. Rather than purchase expensive box-sets that may or may not prove beneficial, anyone with an Android device is advised to download BJJ Flow for free.
