This study aimed analyzing the impact of an extension project for the promotion of citizenship. So, we selected a sample of 15 jiu jitsu participants of the extension project at UNESP. Each participant answered a questionnaire, and we tried to establish their views and visions, not only about jiu jitsu, but also about the importance of an extension project like this in our society. The subjects seemed to like jiu jitsu a lot, comprehending it as a possibility for physical and leisure activity. All participants considered it important to have this kind of project in the university. The opportunity to practice with other people is the main reason that led the participants to this project. This fact illustrates the democratization of jiu jitsu proposed by this extension project. We concluded that the jiu jitsu extension project at UNESP at Rio Claro has a positive impact on their participants, because it allows them to not only to know the techniques of the sport, but also to discuss the various aspects of jiu jitsu´s contents, becoming more critical and reflective about this body practice.
