Wyo Faction

Wyo Faction Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Mixed Martial Arts, Yoga Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a devastating fighting and grappling art developed by the Gracie Family of Brazil.

While it contains many stand-up throws, takedowns and self-defense techniques that can finish a fight, it is most famous for its extremely effective ground fighting techniques. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was developed to allow the smaller person to defeat the larger person through the application of leverage and submission holds such as joint locks and chokes. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a versatile martial a

rt whose varied applications include a highly effective self-defense system, a competitive sport, a proven realistic fighting style, and a fun and healthy recreational activity. Because of its versatility, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is quickly becoming one of the most popular martial arts in the world today, and is, without question, the most effective. The lineage of the technique that is available at Wyo Faction can be traced directly to the roots of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu through Professor Dave Ruiz of Colorado Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, whom had the privilege of learning directly under Grandmaster Helio Gracie, as well as later with Master Rigan Machado, to his student Professor Robert Wunderlich, also of Colorado Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, down to Instructor Dave Wenig, whom now brings Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to Rock Springs.
