BJJ Anatomy Quiz & Educational Game

Welcome to the Sensei Sandy BJJ Anatomy Quiz, an interactive educational game designed to help Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu students, kids, and parents learn the major bones of the human body. Understanding anatomy is crucial for martial arts safety, proper technique, and injury prevention.

Why Learn Anatomy for Jiu-Jitsu?

In BJJ, we use our bodies to control opponents and apply leverage. Knowing the difference between a joint (like the elbow or knee) and a bone (like the ribcage or skull) helps students train safer.

• Safety: Students learn which areas are fragile and need protection.
• Communication: Helps kids tell their coach exactly where they feel pressure (e.g., "my shoulder" instead of "my arm").
• Technique: Leverage works best when applied to specific skeletal structures.

Bones You Will Learn in this Game

This quiz tests your reaction time and knowledge of the following skeletal parts:

• Skull: The helmet that protects the brain. Always protect your head!
• Spine: The central pillar of your body posture. Keep it straight and strong.
• Shoulder: A mobile joint used for framing and creating space.
• Ribcage: The shield for your heart and lungs. Do not squeeze too hard!
• Pelvis (Hips): The center of gravity. "Hips are everything" in BJJ.
• Elbow & Wrist: Common targets for armlocks and control grips.
• Knee & Ankle: Essential for base, balance, and standing up safely.
