4 kids from our Kids Competition Team made it out this last weekend to test their skills in the Copa Pacifica tournament. Congrats to Nolan, Richard, Thing 1 and Thing 2!
Effective immediately, the kids competition program has been expanded into daily classes. With these new classes, it will allow more in depth and advanced topics to be covered while increasing sparring time. Focus will be on preparing the experienced student for elite levels of BJJ competition.

PED in Jiu-Jitsu: Modafinil (Part 1 of 4)
Brea Jiu-Jitsu took a competition team of kids and adults to the Five Grappling tournament this past weekend. The competitors walked away with 1 gold, 4 silvers and 1 bronze! Paul and Richard closed out their division and the winner was decided by an intense game of rock, paper, scissors. Many of the kids were able to take pictures with their favorite BJJ stars like Keenan Cornelius, Clark Gracie and Andre Galvao. Great job to everybody!
