Learn Jiu Jitsu and Learn an Essential Life Skill: Teamwork

How will learning Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in El Dorado Hills help my son or daughter develop life skills that will last a lifetime? 

     There are many benefits to training jiu-jitsu at our martial arts studio. Courage, leadership, confidence, dedication, discipline, and respect are only a few of the things our students develop as they train on the mat. Today we will high light one aspect of jiu jitsu that is often over looked in many grappling oriented, combative sports and even martial arts: TEAMWORK.

     El Dorado Hills Brazilian Jiu Jitsu has developed many drills and exercises that are in the form of working out, that help build and facilitate team work. We are even careful with our wording of how we refer to one another. The idea of training with a "partner" instead of an "opponent" immediately establishes the idea that we are working together towards a common goal. This serves multiple purposes. "I will help you get better as you help me get better, and as a result of helping you I will be helping myself get better." This concept, ingrained in all grappling arts, is something preached heavily in Judo. The idea of mutual welfare.
