Parents getting directly involved may lead to more backlash and having teachers intervene seem to do nothing. So how does Brazilian Jiu Jitsu play into all of this?

  • Why should women do Jiu Jitsu?

    Why should women do Jiu Jitsu?

    The whole basis behind Jiu Jitsu is for a smaller person to be able to take a bigger opponent to the ground and control them. This is usually done by using grappling techniques that can throw off the bigger opponent's center of gravity, which then allows the smaller person to subdue and neutralize their opponent.

    9 Tips on Choosing a Jiu-Jitsu Academy

    So, you want to learn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Awesome! But, where to start? I mean considering a person can spend more than a few years (10 years average) to receive their Black Belt, picking the right gym counts. Besides, you might want to invite friends, family, co-workers to come check the school out so you would want to have this reflect well on you after all. I cannot stress this enough, don't make this too serious. It's not like you are picking a medical or business school; most may go through a few gyms, just to find a school that agrees with their philosophy, training style, overall atmosphere, and of course energy between the other students. Through this, and ....
