Listen, it is no small task to walk into a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school and say hey, "Teach me! I'm committed! I want to learn." So here is a shout out to my first-ever, home-grown, from scratch Nova Mente Jiu Jitsu Academy female White Belt, Rebekah on receiving your first stripe tonight! Awesome work. #proudjiujitsuinstructor "Jiu-jitsu is the gentle art. It's the art where a small man or woman is going to prove to you, no matter how strong you are, no matter how mad you get, that you're going to have to accept defeat. Thats what Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is." -- Saulo Ribeiro #transformation #transforminglives #becomingextraordinary #beconsistent #jiujitsu #brazilianjiujitsu #jiujitsulifestyle #jiujitsufamily #bjjteens #bjj #bjjkids #novamente #novamentejiujitsu #denver #lakewood #littleton #englewood #judo #f2wpro #empoweredcommunity #novaninjas #graciejiujitsu #machadojiujitsu #downtimewithcoachd #youtuber #girlsingis (at Nova Mente Jiu Jitsu Academy)
