| Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu |

As the name suggests Brazilian jiu-jitsu is from Brazil.
Notable progenitors and fervent practitioners of this style
are the Gracie family, who also founded the Ultimate Fighting
Championship to prove their worth, or rather Royce Gracie
did.
But what less people know is that the style was
developed by Carlos Gracie after he was taught a portion of
original jiu-jitsu by a Japanese man, Maeda, but adapted it
due to lack of physical strength. The outcome is a system
revolving around groundwork and submissions, most notable of
which are the chokes. The style, as such, is pretty recent; it
was founded in the beginning of the 19th century.

| TAO TEH CHING, Chapter 61 |

A GREAT country is like the lowland toward which all
streams flow. It is the Reservoir of all under heaven, the
Feminine of the world.
The Feminine always conquers the
Masculine by her quietness, by lowering herself through her
quietness.
Hence, if a great country can lower itself
before a small country, it will win over the small country;
and if a small country can lower itself before a great
country, it will win over the great country. The one wins by
stooping; the other, by remaining low.
What a great country
wants is simply to embrace more people; and what a small
country wants is simply to come to serve its patron. Thus,
each gets what it wants. But it behooves a great country to
lower itself.

By now, the Warrior Pages should have completed it's change
to a new server. Hopefully your response is: "huh, I never
noticed," instead of "oh, that's what happened." If you do
experience any dead links or missing content, please let us
know and we will fix it right away. You can contact us by
email or on the forum.
Our biggest concern was the transfer of the forum intact.
This appears to have been successful, but there is a chance
items posted during the change over may be missing. We
apologize if this happened to you.
We've taken the change as an opportunity to redesign the
Warrior Pages Store. We've upgraded the security and will soon
be expanding the products lines. Thank you for your patience,
and get ready, there will be much more to come. Visit the Forum...
