Galaxies

Definition

Galaxies are specific areas of jiu-jitsu where techniques are grouped. They’re thematic collections: submissions, escapes, passing, guard, mount, side control, americanas, arm bars, triangles, and more. They help you browse by theme. Want to work on escapes? Go to the Escapes galaxy. Want to deepen your arm bar game? Go to the Arm Bar galaxy. Each galaxy contains techniques that share mechanics or context. Some are broad (Positions), some are narrow (Rear Naked Chokes).
