Stories

Each person on the mat carries a story. Here are the ones we've had the privilege to hear.

"I found jiu-jitsu by accident, and it became the one thing that made sense when nothing else did."

"I left everything in Mar del Plata — my house, my car, my dog, my family — and put my life in a suitcase to start from zero in Mallorca."

"I used to sell cookies on the street to pay for my jiu-jitsu competitions. Today I get more emotional when my students win than when I do."
