"The goal for Team One Southern Indiana would be the combination of the social & physical education involved in martial arts. We want to help each individual with their specific aspirations whether that is someone who has never experienced martial arts, looking for a new fitness challenge, or even to be a jiu jitsu/mma competitor. Ultimately we aim to immerse each student in the comradere within Jiu Jitsu & support our community by offering a positive atmosphere to grow as a person."
For those who do not know jiu jitsu, it is a Japanese martial art. It is a self-defense martial art based on grappling, ground fighting and submission holds. It focuses on the skill of controlling one's opponent, gaining a dominant position and using a number of techniques to force them in to submission via joint locks or chokes.
"I began training January of 2012, at this time I was 20 years old with no sense of direction for my life. I pushed myself to pursue a skill and dedicate my time & energy. Quickly I found myself overtaken by the infinite grind that was Jiu Jitsu & the rapid rate of growth that could occur. My brain attached to the discipline & the skill set I was obtaining.
Throughout my years of training I have dedicated myself to 3-4 days + weekly sometimes going multiple times a day or even training every single day of the week. I've made friends that will last a lifetime & expanded my circle further than what I thought possible. I found that while I joined initially for the self defense training the reasons I continued to return were so much more than that. Jiu Jitsu has inspired me to believe in myself... I've learned that dedication & persistence are the keys to obtain any goal."
