December 6, 2019 By MAO40 Staff

Jiu jitsu has multiple benefits for those seeking to learn the martial art. It teachers people to protect themselves and others. It strengthens your body and improves your confidence as well. Your jiu jitsu success often stems from learning how to properly tap. Do it early and do it as often as possible. Choose training partners with respectful, polite, and relaxed people. Avoid working with hotheads. Be sure to include time in your schedule for proper weight training as well.

Key Takeaways:

  • Jiu jitsu offers many benefits, like protecting yourself and familiarizing yourself with your body.
