Importance of Posture in Jiu Jitsu

Posture in Jiu Jitsu involves effectively utilizing your spine to align your body for optimal performance during both offensive and defensive moves. Good posture ensures that your head and body are pointed in the same direction, providing power and leverage. Conversely, bad posture occurs when your spine is twisted, hindering your ability to fight effectively.
