Jiu Jitsu
Jiu jitsu has become a passion of mine and my kids. I get to coach them before I train- it is one of my favorite things that I have the pleasure of participating in. It teaches discipline, staying comfortable in the uncomfortable places, and most of all to stay humble in victory & defeat.
