There is a long and storied relationship between martial arts and law enforcement, and BJJ is the quickly becoming ingrained as part of that. Many countries have had concerns about officers using excessive force, or about them being underprepared for the conflict they face. Several studies over the years have shown that BJJ may actually be the answer to both those problems. By learning and regularly practicing Jiu-Jitsu, officers can actually not only protect themselves but also better protect the public too. Many prominent figures in both the law enforcement and BJJ worlds have decided to throw their weight behind this idea and are pushing for the art to be a mandatory part of policing.
