WELCOME!
I am a high school student in Hawaii and this is my website about Gracie Jiu Jitsu. Jiu Jitsu is a real passion for me and I have grown to love this sport. I had originally started doing wrestling for my school but when I moved halfway across the world I had to stop wrestling and look for something new. For about a year I didn't do much investigating for gyms or anything but when my best friends kept talking about this sport called Jiu Jitsu I wanted to know what its all about. I went to my first practice and thought I would be able to defeat anyone but I soon realized that there is more to Jiu Jitsu than pure strength. Even though I didn't do well my first practice, I knew I had something in this sport. Long story short, I was instantly hooked and have been training for about a year and a half; and was promoted to orange belt after only six months of training (shows that commitment has its rewards!). The main reason for this website is to show a wary world that not all martial arts are bad. I wanted to show teens and young adults around the US (or world) the benefits of Jiu Jitsu both from a personal experience and professional one. So without further ado welcome to Gracie Jiu Jitsu!
