10th Planet Jiu Jitsu is a non-traditional style of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu developed by Eddie Bravo, the style is based on No Gi grappling which uses clinching techniques utilising underhooks, overhooks, and other grips that don’t depend on the use of grabbing clothing (the gi) to gain an advantage. This style was developed after seeing the early success of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu had drastically declined in Mixed Martial Arts and mainly the UFC. 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu, although being a complete system of No Gi Jiu Jitsu is most known for its signature positions such as the Lockdown (a half guard position), the Rubber guard (a clinching form of the guard in which the bottom player uses their leg to control the posture of their opponent), and the Twister.
The main premise behind 10th Planet Jiu Jitsu is that the art should keep evolving, finding new ways to attack and counter and never become stagnant.
