This month EDH Jiu-Jitsu will be celebrating Self Defense Awareness. With each lesson we will be including a short 30-90 second (maybe longer) message about what we know, learned, and can share about self-defense. As an added bonus all family members are welcome to come a train (for free) during the month of October. Some training is better than no training. Some awareness is better than no awareness. Please help us spread a little more awareness by brining a family member on the mat with you!
When most of us think about self-defense, the scenario we tend to think of in our head is: Innocent little defenseless person gets attacked by a crazy under the influence psycho...... And that's understandable. But what about opening up the idea of self defense to the many other "attackers" that are prevalent within our society. Diabetes (dietary self-defense), Heart Disease (cardiac self-defense), Pollution (environmental self-defense), Mental Health (psychological self-defense), etc. If Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a lifestyle, and we are looking to live the "jiujitsu lifestyle" we talk about, then thinking about protecting ourselves from these attackers should be a high priority. If AWARENESS is the first step of self-defense, then this month we will be doing just that. See you on the mat!
