In addition to training on the mat, El Dorado Hills Brazilian Jiu Jitsu students are challenged to take leadership and find something they feel passionate about. A platform they feel comfortable stepping on, educating themselves about, and sharing with others. Since the first line of self-defense is awareness, the best way to increase the levels of everyone's self-defense is though education and training on and off the mat.
Aiza Tengan, one of the students and EDH Jiu Jitsu has found her platform and is passionate about sharing her knowledge on cardiac self defense. If you're friends with her on facebook, I'm sure you've seen some of her posts about the need to eat heart healthy foods, the importance of stress reduction, and incorporating fitness into the daily routine. As a leader she has taken the initiative to organize a Heart Walk Team, to help promote the awareness for heart health among all of us. HEART HEALTH IS SOMETHING WE ALL NEED TO BE AWARE OF. ESPECIALLY, IF WE FIT THE PROFILE FOR HEART DISEASE, BUT BEING AWARE AND CHECKING THE SIGNS OF CARDIAC DISEASE IS PRACTICAL FOR ALL OF US.
If you would like to make a donation, join us on the walk, or find out more information about heart health and what you can do to help defend yourself from cardiac disease (FYI....It's the deadliest killer in the world!!!) visit this link by clicking here. Below is a little update on the team and how they have done within the community. Thank you Aiza for making a contribution to a safer, stronger, and healthier world!
