What’s the first reason you should learn Jiu-Jitsu? Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the most efficient form of self defense. Although most altercations can be avoided some can not and you must be prepared to protect yourself and the ones you care about.
Patrick Hamilton has been practicing Brazilain Jiu-Jitsu for over 10 years and is a black belt under Fabio Novaes, a Nogi World Champion and 2 time Pan American Champion. Fabios Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu lineage can be traced directly back to the legendary Carlson Gracie gym in Copacabana, Brazil.
Why should your kids train Brazlian Jiu-Jitsu? Bullying, especially cyber bullying has become an issue for kids of all ages. Self defense skills such as BJJ can not only protect children in physical altercations but give them the tools and confidence to avoid them when possible.
In a perfect world our children would never have to defend themselves, having the skills to do so if necessary will benefit them greatly.
Joining a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym is joining a community of people who are all striving for a like minded goal. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is different from traditional sports and requires communication and cooperation between teammates which is a great way to build social skills.
Exposing children to obstacles they can overcome while spending time with other children their age is important for overall health and social abilties.
Children training in Brazilain Jiu-Jitsu will oftentimes be put into leadership positions so they can build confidence and learn to lead and help others in need.
