He was promoted to black belt in Brazil's soil, that's cool! I hope he had tried the local Açaí 😎

Respect from a 39yr old white belt at Alliance in Eagle, Idaho USA. Its great learning from Gigi (he lives here now). Good production to show case the value of BJJ. It is as Chris describes it - transformative.

Love it. I am a Geordie lad from Fenham, living in the caribbean for the last 6 years. Jiujitsu has changed my life also the last 15 months. Great little movie, I look forward this September to come train at your gym in Newcastle.

Anyone watching this unsure if they can do this. I can say from personal experience, BJJ is the real deal in terms of self defence and confidence building.

I tried Jiujitsu for 1 month. I really enjoyed it. but ultimately it wasn't for me. The problem is I already have too many hobbies, and if I took on Juijistsu as well I would become a "jack of all trades, master of none". I also underestimated the level of fitness needed to merely keep up with the class, This is something you are better off starting young and it takes a lot of time and energy. I was also disappointed that a lot of the self-defense material has been removed from the curriculum. (I'm told that's available in Gracie Jujitsu)

Hey, sorry to hear that, it can be really hard at the start, but if you commit 3 months to it your fitness and understanding of the technique will improve exponentially! You're right it does take a lot of energy to get to a good level, but for the first 2 years I only trained once per week, I understand you, you can never master bjj if you're not training all of the time, but you can still reep the mental and physical benefits from training even just once per week. A lot of gym's teach sport bjj now which does lose that self defence aspect, Although it's all really transferrable, Chris teaches techniques would work as self defence or in the gym. Maybe try his gym if you're in the area!
