Assignment #20 - free choice

Jiu Jitsu is a sport that I like to play. Jiu Jitsu is a style of martial arts that is mostly "on the ground fighting" it is similar to wrestling but the goal is to make your opponent tap out from pain, not to just get them on the ground.

 I train at Tomacelli academy on newport blvd. It is a school that has been around since 2006, the coach there is Mike Tomacelli, he is a black belt instructor who has won many tournaments and also guided many students to victory as well. He was trained by Joe Moreira a famous fighter who is an 8th degree coral belt.

I was introduced to this sport from my friend Taylor about a year ago. I barely convinced my grandma to sign me up but when she did I was really happy. The gym is a lot like a family rather than a gym, everyone there is really nice and are not full of themselves like a lot of those guys. They work hard to be the best they can be and to help the lower levels as well. I love going there every day and I want to be the best ever, it takes a lot of hard
work though to even get past the beginner stage where I am at but I will do it.
