Jiu-Jitsu is great for the body and is an exciting adventure of the mind, spirit, and heart. In addition to sharing our experiences, I want to explore the multiple dimensions of Jiu-Jitsu as well as the philosophy, art, science, technique, etc. Most importantly, I want to use words to help define the Jiu-Jitsu we create with our bodies. When you read, the world widens and your mind begins to change a little. As we train hard to change ourselves for the better, we can also change our community!

NoGi Jiu Jitsu World Championships 2012
The weekend of November 3 and 4 saw another successful tournament for El Dorado Hills Brazilian Jiu Jitsu! Jordan and Eliot trained hard on and off the mat in El Dorado Hills, Sacramento, and San Francisco in preparation for the IBJJF No Gi Jiu Jitsu World Championships, which took place at the CSU Pyramid in Long Beach, CA. Jordan fought hard in the Ultra Heavy weight blue belt division, while Eliot battled in the Heavy weight brown belt division. Eliot brought home a SILVER in his division, the 5th World Championship medal brought back to the one and only Jiu Jitsu dojo in El Dorado Hills, CA! Overall, Team Yemaso brought back 5 medals from the NoGi Jiu Jitsu World Championships! Jordan had a tough debut as a blue belt, and is excited to get back on the mat in preparation for the FALL Jiu Jitsu Open to finish out the 2012 competition season. This was Eliot's last tournament as a brown belt as he moves up into the black belt division on December 17th. Congratulations to all the competitors on an exciting season, and a BIG thank you to all who helped with the training in anticipation of the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS! A medal earned by one is a medal earned by all!
