What's great about CU Jiu Jitsu? Seeing this every class. These three are family and teammates. 4 years old, 6 years old, 8 years old. They look out for each other on and off the mats. Family that rolls together, stays together!

offer martial arts to our youth which teach them how to handle bullying as both an emotional and physical response. We help them learn the tools that may save their life one day. We do this we a structured, organized and disciplined curriculum that keeps your kids engaged and gaining confidence.

Congratulations to for earning their 6th degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. As his professor, said, it's not just time in the black belt but how you spend it. That looks different for everyone. John spends time cultivating a team with positive value and morals, teaching globally, and mentoring. And although he's in his 60's he still trains. is proud to be part of Team Tsunami.

We had a great night, starting with an inside trip takedown from double under grips before moving on to knee on belly positional sparring. Everyone was extra adorable, as you can see, which is fitting as we bid a temporary farewell to young Daniel who will fly North for the summer. We'll miss you, and can't wait to see you back in the fall. We'll also miss Erkai as he heads to China to begin his new career!

Kosoto gari, de ashi barai (seen here) and far side kosoto gari, followed by X pass and movement from knee on belly. Nuance and details from feet to floor today. In plain talk, get to the side and trip your partner.

As an aside, following along in the background of the takedown series is kind of adorable ❤️
