HOW RODRIGO FREITAS BJJ CHANGED THIS PARENT's LIFE

"To fully understand the depth of appreciation we have for the Rodrigo Freitas Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu School you would have to know our son Luke and the story behind our road to finding the school.
 
Luke was an extremely quiet and shy little boy who always struggled with his self-confidence. Luke had never been the type of kid who wanted to participate in any team or group type activities as he preferred to stay in the background and away from being the center of any attention. With his personality and shyness you can imagine our surprise when Luke asked us to find him a place to enroll and learn martial arts. We were very excited that he was stepping out of his comfort zone and was interested in participating in an extracurricular activity. We visited several different places while trying to find the right fit for Luke without any luck. Each place was great and offered something different, but none of them felt right until we walked into Rodrigo Freitas. I knew it was the right place from the minute we walked in the door. Though I could tell Luke was nervous he was immediately intrigued and jumped at the chance to borrow a GI and try out the class. From that moment forward he has been in love with training at RFBJJ and he has never looked back.
 
There are so many reasons why I appreciate the Rodrigo Freitas BJJ School and what they have done for my son over the past nine months. The Professor and each of the coaches have demonstrated the ability to instill discipline and confidence in the students while setting a great example of sportsmanship and compassion for each other. Luke has gained such a high level of self-confidence and drive to continue to improve his jiu-jitsu skills as a result of their excellent teaching and high level of training. I think that it is wonderful that the coaching staff sets such a great example for the kids and I appreciate their willingness to be such great role models for my son. The best part about RFBJJ is the family atmosphere of the school where everyone greets you with a smile. From the first moment we walked into the school we have always felt welcome and appreciated. It is an honor for our family to be a part of the RFBJJ Family and we look forward to many more years here and being a part of their future."
