Jiu Jitsu..

DS recently had his testing for belt advancement in Jiu-Jitsu... He is taking classes in the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu method... He has only been taking this form of martial arts for about 4 months... Prior to this he was taking karate, but when he advanced to the older age group, he entered the Jiu-Jitsu class...


He did really well... The class grappled among the weight classes and I was nervous watching, because to me, it looked like he was being man-handled... But he now has advanced to a "gold" belt and won a bronze metal for points in grappling!! I was so proud!!!
