“I was looking for an effective combat sport and heard about Jiu-Jitsu. After my first experience with the art, I knew it was that I found what I was looking for. However, what I didn’t know back then was that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was far more than just the most effective and most efficient combat sport on the planet, it was also and foremost a martial art. A martial art that taught me through the years how to constantly improve myself, how to run my business, how to raise my children and simply how to be a good person. To me like to other millions of people around the planet, Jiu-Jitsu is right up there: among the best things that ever happened to me.”
