I take MDK TKD with a definite self defense focus. Two of my friends took BJJ when they lived in Washington, one was Blue belt and I dont remember his brothers rank. We were talking and I came to that conclusion. However, I do not know how much standing self defense is in BJJ or if theres anything for certain situations, attacker with a weapon, multiple attackers, etc. So feel free to share info on that too, but mainly would you agree that it's a great art as a supplement to another art? For the most part, because its so dissimilar to standing styles, whatever styles you took wouldnt conflict. Just my opinion with limited knowledge.
Also, very important, by absolutely no means am I saying that BJJ is only useful as a supplement. I've seen the Blue belt friend of mine use it in self defense with control and I do believe its more than effective. I'm just curious as to if this opinion is common or not.
