Ode To Jiu Jitsu

Jiu jitsu found me in a sense; I wasn't really looking to learn it, I just wanted to fight. It didn't take long to steer me away from my intentions because there is something unique about being in a roll. One day you can feel like you know how to move and dominate anyone who tries to challenge you, and others you feel helpless. It is the ultimate rebirth of one's ego through trials. Jiu jitsu is the art that I needed most to take me away from the normal burdens of life; it gave me an outlet that I suffered so long without. My goal is to make sure that anyone who is willing, gets to experience that same feeling I had when it "clicked." The time spent on the mats is priceless and the friends made along the way are more true because of the nature of the art. You couldn't have a more necessary experience in life.
