Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a great complement sport for surfers. We face big challenges, fears, learn how to breath, keep calm under stressful moments, we must be full present, and take fast decisions.

Surf & Roll all day. 🏄🏼‍♀️🥋🤼‍♀️🌊

Girls just want to have fun.

Two of the most important skills you learn in Jiu Jitsu are consistency and discipline.

Two values you must to have for competition are respect and courage.

It is about the journey not the destination.

Big thanks to the parents, coaches and the kids.
