“I’ve been seeing blue and purple belts who think Jiu-Jitsu’s all about grabbing a sleeve and trying some little sweeps. That’s awful for the sport, but what can you do about it? No one can control that.”

“Hoje vejo faixas-azuis e roxas com a visão de que Jiu-Jitsu é pegar na manga e tentar raspadinhas. Isso é ruim para o esporte, mas o que se pode fazer? Ninguém pode controlar isso”

They’ve learned such concepts as loyalty, discipline, dedication, respect and honor. Precepts for making them better people—and they learn to defend themselves when their parents and protectors aren’t around to boot.
with Jiu-Jitsu your kids will never be alone again.
