This episode, we shine the spotlight on an innovative martial art created in 2020. Car-Jitsu combines Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) with the unique constraints of a car’s interior, where fighters use seats, steering wheels, seat belts, and mirrors as tools for submission. Designed as a fun experiment to push BJJ’s boundaries, it has since gained viral attention online for its unorthodox and exciting nature. We dive into the sport’s origins with its founder, Vik Mikheev.

That's A Sport is a brand new monthly series where we look to explore and discover some lesser known sport around the globe.
