SJJIF has always aimed to promote Brazilian jiu-jitsu through the community and events – all so the level of knowledge grows and the lifestyle becomes all-consuming. In fact the SJJIF has high hopes. They aspire to benefit and enable the growth of the sport in order to organize it and meet the requirements of International Olympic Committee. They aspire to achieve this thanks to easier rules that enable better understanding by both professionals and spectators.

 

SJJIF was founded in June 2011 by professors Joao Silva, Patricia Silva, Samuel Aschidamini, Cleiber Maia and  Edison Kagohara. First international SJJIF Worlds took place just a couple of years ago (2013) at the Long Beach Pyramid in Long Beach, California.
