Training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu will help us “re-program” the way we think about ourselves, our goals and the challenges that are ahead of us.
On our mats we learn to welcome mistakes, learn important lessons in defeat, set goals, work hard, overcome adversity, stay calm under pressure. We learn to be fighters.
