Jiu-Jitsu: It’s Not Just About Chokes and Sweeps (But There Are Plenty of Those Too!)
Let’s face it, BJJ can be a tough sport. Between the sweat, the scrambles, and the occasional tap out, it’s easy to forget that there’s a whole lot of fun to be had on the mats. That’s why we love these hilarious BJJ jokes! They capture the camaraderie, the challenges, and the sometimes-absurd situations we all encounter on our Jiu-Jitsu journeys.
So, buckle up, white belts, blue belts, purple belts, and beyond! We’re about to roll through 30 BJJ jokes that will have you laughing (and maybe wincing a little) in recognition. Get ready for some serious side-splitting action, because on these mats, laughter truly is the best medicine (except maybe for that armbar you just tapped to).
Our favorite Jiu-Jitsu Jokes:
- Q: What do you call a really good BJJ player who never taps? A: Unemployed.
- What’s the difference between a choke and a hug? A choke has a purpose.
- My BJJ instructor told me to focus on my weaknesses. So I started working on my social life.
- My BJJ coach keeps telling me to relax. But I can’t relax, there’s someone trying to strangle me!
- I went to the doctor and told him I hurt my back doing BJJ. He said, “Next time, try winning.”
- I bought a self-defense manual for BJJ. Turns out, it’s just a bunch of blank pages.
- My BJJ training is going well. I can now tie my gi blindfolded…while mounted.
- What’s the difference between BJJ and chess? Chess is easier to explain to your significant other.
- I love the feeling after a good BJJ class. Like I got hit by a truck…multiple times.
- My BJJ instructor says I have a lot of potential. Unfortunately, that potential seems to be for getting tapped out.
- What’s the difference between a BJJ black belt and a cup of coffee? The coffee eventually stops keeping you up at night.
- I finally learned how to escape a rear-naked choke. Now I just need to learn how to avoid getting put in one.
- I bought a BJJ rashguard that says “I tap when I want.” Turns out, that wasn’t very motivational.
- My BJJ coach told me to picture myself as a lion on the mats. Now everyone thinks I have rabies.
- I love BJJ because it’s a great way to meet new people. People who want to choke you unconscious.
- My BJJ training is like therapy, only way more expensive and with a higher chance of getting choked out.
- I finally learned how to shrimp out of mount. Now I just need to learn how to get there in the first place.
- BJJ is like a good book: I can’t put it down, even though it hurts.
- My BJJ instructor told me to focus on my breathing. So I started snoring during guard retention.
- I went to a BJJ competition and got disqualified for excessive tapping. Apparently, tapping 15 times in 30 seconds is considered “unsportsmanlike conduct.”
- What’s the best part about BJJ? The feeling of accomplishment when you finally tap someone out…with a legal move.
- My BJJ coach told me to visualize success. So I visualized myself winning a world championship. Then I woke up with a sore neck.
- I love BJJ because it’s a great way to learn self-defense. Now I can confidently tap out to anyone, anywhere.
- Why did the white belt cross the gym? To get to the blue belt side…and ask for help tying their gi.
