A question we recieve all the time..
#
"Am I too old to start?"
#
From people as young as in their middle 20's..
#
Jiu jitsu can be practiced at any age as long aa your approach is a sensible one..
#
Please understand that getting older doesn’t mean slowing down.
#
Jiu-Jitsu keeps you moving.
#
It builds strength, fitness, balance and mobility.
#
It helps manage weight, improves coordination and keeps the mind sharp.
#
It gives you practical self-defence skills, confidence and, perhaps most importantly, a reason to keep challenging yourself.
#
But there’s something even more important…
#
Enjoyment!
#
Because training shouldn’t just be about getting fitter or learning how to fight.
#
It should be about laughing, having a bit of craic, challenging your friends, making new ones and leaving the mats with a smile on your face.
#
Your starting age doesn’t matter.
#
Its always a good time to move around, learn something new and have fun!
#
That’s the beauty of Jiu-Jitsu.

🥋 MEET FIONN! 🥋
#
Two years of training in BJJ..
#
The second belt in the grading system is achieved 🙏
#
A huge congratulations to this young man on earning his solid grey belt! 🎉👏
#
At just 9 years old, he’s now been on his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey for two years...
#
Two years of training, learning, improving, having fun, and, most importantly, being a fantastic training partner for everyone around him.

The belt is a great achievement, but what really matters is everything that comes with it.

The discipline, the effort, the confidence, the friendships, and the willingness to keep turning up and getting better. 💪

🥋 THE BENEFITS OF COMPETITION IN BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU 🥋
#
Competition isn't for everyone...
#
The truth is you don't need to compete to enjoy Jiu-Jitsu...
#
But if you want to test your jiu jitsu and accelerate your personal development...
#
Competition can be one of the most valuable experiences you can have on the mats...
#
Competition teaches you things that regular training sometimes can't 》》
#
▪︎ The things you thought were good suddenly get tested under pressure.
#
▪︎ Adrenaline, nerves, fatigue and pressure are all part of the experience. Learning to function through them is a skill in itself.
#
▪︎ You learn to keep thinking when things aren't going your way.
#
▪︎ Having a competition coming up can sharpen your focus and give your training a clear objective.
#
▪︎ Nobody else can prepare for your match.
#
Your conditioning, technique, weight, mindset and preparation are ultimately your responsibility.
#
▪︎ Competition gives you immediate feedback.
#
You quickly discover what works when someone is actively trying to stop you.
#
This might be the biggest lesson of all 》》
#
You learn that losing isn't failure — it's just information.
#
The great thing is 》》
#
You don't have to compete to be a great Jiu-Jitsu practitioner!
#
This is forged on the training mats 🥋💪

🥋 JIU JITSU AS A PROBLEM SOLVING SPORT 🥋
#
Jiu-jitsu teaches you that problems rarely disappear just because you want them to..
#
You have to stay calm..
#
Assess the situation..
#
Identify what is actually causing the problem..
#
And find a solution 💪
#
When Plan A doesn't work, you don't panic..
#
You adapt 🙏
#
When something feels impossible, you break it down into smaller problems.
#
When someone puts pressure on you, you learn to think clearly under pressure rather than react emotionally.
#
That mindset doesn't stay on the mats..
#
Its transferable..
#
It carries into school, work, business, relationships and everyday life.
#
Jiu-jitsu teaches critical thinking, patience, resilience and the ability to make good decisions when things aren't going your way.
#
You are not just learning how to "fight"..
#
You're learning how to think.
#
And that's one of the most valuable skills jiu-jitsu can give you.

23/08/2026

We had four kids from the Team Torres - Derry academy competing today at the Solid Ground BJJ Tournament.
#
🥇🥇🥇🥈
#
Their efforts returned three golds and a silver — and every single one of our kids got at least two matches.
#
More importantly, they all went out there, competed hard and fought really well. 👊
#
Thats 5 🥇🥇🥇🥇🥇 from six attendees conpeting in the past few weeks.
#
A little-known fact about our kids programme is that we have a small competition team performing at the highest level of IBJJF competition.
#
With sibblings and spear heading our kids competition team over the past few years.
#
Bringing medals back from Pans - Europeans - Elite worlds and a host of other competitions.
#
These young attendees travelling around the world competing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and getting great results against some of the best young athletes in the sport.
#
But behind those kids is an army of young people who simply love coming to the mats.
#
Some want to compete. Some might compete one day. Some probably never will.
#
And that's absolutely fine.
#
Because competition isn't the only measure of what jiu-jitsu can give a child.
#
For us, jiu-jitsu is a vehicle for building resilience, problem-solving, confidence, discipline and friendship.
#
They learn to deal with pressure.
#
They learn to lose and get back up.
#
They learn to solve problems when things aren't going their way.
#
And they build friendships through the battles, the hard rounds and the camaraderie on the mat.
#
That's what we're really proud of.
#
The medals are fantastic.
#
But the well rounded & respectful young adults is the goal.
#
Well done to all four of our competitors today. 👏🥋
