🥋 THE JOURNEY IS BIGGER THAN ONE COMPETITION.
This weekend, Itallo, Emmet and Stephen stepped onto the competition mats and represented everything we believe in at 011GRPL.
Medals are class. 🥇 But what happens before the medal matters even more — showing up when you’re tired, learning something completely new, getting uncomfortable, having difficult rounds and coming back again the following week.
It’s an absolute pleasure sharing the mats with these three legends and watching what consistency and resilience can do. ❤️
And here’s something for anyone sitting at home thinking, “I’m too old to start Jiu-Jitsu.”
Emmet and Stephen both started after 40.
Both came through our 011GRPL Beginners Programme.
They started as complete beginners.
Now they’re stepping onto competition mats and winning medals. 🏅
They didn’t wait until they were fitter.
They didn’t wait until they “knew Jiu-Jitsu.”
They started — and became fitter, stronger and more confident along the way.
That’s exactly why our Beginners Programme exists. You don’t need experience, you don’t need to be in shape, and you definitely don’t need to be 20 years old.
You just need to take the first step.
Your first medal might be months or years away — but your first class can be this week.
🥋 Complete beginners welcome
👥 Small, supportive classes
🔥 Adults 35+ encouraged
🚫 No pressure to compete
🤝 Build confidence, fitness and resilience at your own pace
Emmet and Stephen started exactly where every beginner starts: at day one.
