I would like you to enjoy Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as a lifelong sport.
02The best type of fitness:
train your body and mind
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a very inclusive sport.
Starting with improving cardiopulmonary function, strengthening muscles,
muscle endurance and flexibility.
It also improves body coordination and balance.
In addition, there are many opportunities to face one's inner self during practice,
and one's own weakness comes to surface.
By increasing the number of situations where you face your weakness,
you will learn to overcome them.
Once you overcome your weakness, you will gain confidence and a sense of accomplishment.
But still learning how to be humble.
