3 reasons you should start training Jiu jitsu

Anyone who has trained Jiu jitsu or any form of martial arts will tell you that it transformed their life in more ways than one. For us at Elements Jiu Jitsu Academy in Bahrain, we see this MMA sport as a means of building a community of like-minded people who support each other to reach their full potential. Here are 3 reasons we encourage you to start training Brazilian Jiu jitsu:

Keeps you fit and healthy

Martial arts is a great workout alternative to going to a gym doing the same routine everyday. While you can build muscle and mass in a regular gym, Jiu jitsu can impact your overall fitness including gaining strength, stamina, speed, technique, flexibility and weight loss.

You learn self-defence

The fundamental movements in Jiu jitsu are key components of learning self-defence. This MMA sport was designed so that you can learn strategies that leverage technique and momentum over size and strength. These are actual practical moves that you can action in a real life situation - start one free trial at Elements Jiu jitsu and you will know what we mean!
