Islam literally means 'submission'.

One of the aims of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is to force your opponent into submission, so when you are being choked out and have to admit defeat, it is a little reminder of who is really in control. 

Abdel-Majid Faouri is Jordan's Number 1 BJJ competitor. In this episode he shares his journey with BJJ, life lessons learnt and his philosophy in BJJ.
