Blue Belt Energy, Mum Strength
Between school runs, responsibilities and everything else that comes with being a mum, finding time for yourself can be rare. Let alone committing to something as demanding as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

DOUBLE GOLD for Ryan Paulsen at the SEQLD Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Championship!
This past weekend was a big one for a particular member of our academy, Ryan Paulsen, who delivered an outstanding performance and came home with a double Gold! Here is what Ryan had to say: “ Competing is a great way to keep myself honest, and put what I’ve learned to a real test.
