BJJ Guru: Damn I Wish I Started When I Was This Young!

I had the good fortune of training with members of the Relson Gracie Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu academy when I visited Waikiki in 2010. I remember the atmosphere being really laid back and all the guys were really nice. They definitely extended the island hospitality to me while I was there. Their jiu-jitsu was basic and effective.

One of the members sent me a promo video of their kids class which really impressed me. The kids nowadays are getting better and better each year. It’s scary to think of what their skills will be like if they continue to dedicate themselves as they grow into adults.

Check it out and enjoy!
