Why take up Jiu Jitsu at your age?

A strange sport to start at my ripe old age I hear you say and no I have not been able to persuade any of my (old) mates to join me, yet.

I have a new answer to the question “what grade are you?” (I have only been at it 6 months), “I am Masters 6” I reply!

So why do it ? I spent the first two months getting injured and still cannot shake a groin strain six months on, but I love it! It is a combination of a great work out with lots of brain engagement trying to remember the moves you have been taught. It is a bit like bench pressing weights meanwhile trying to play chess.

I have my good friend Paddy Rice for introducing me to the sport and the excellent Genesis (Roger Gracie) Martial Arts club in Marlow to thank for looking after me!

In case you are wondering Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is not about punching and kicking but is a self-defence martial art and combat sport based on grappling, ground fighting and submission holds!

I plan to carry on as long as I can do and hopefully I will start to get better and make some progress (beyond Masters 7!!)
