Battling Bullies With Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu/BJJ

As back to school time approaches, so does the increasing worry of if your child will be prepared if he/she has to deal with bullying.  Childhood bullying has a long-lasting effect on children even after the bullying has stopped.  Children who have been bullied often suffer from depression and low self-esteem.  Bullying can also cause children to have lower grades and become socially distant from his or her peers

Most schools now a days, have started implementing programs where school yard fights and bullying have a no tolerance rule.  Which is great if the bullying is brought to a teacher’s attention.  However, its estimated that more than half of school bullying incidence are never reported.  So if the bullying is not being reported, then how  are you/your child supposed to be able to know that they are safe against bullying while at school.  As a parent, the best way to protect your child while he/she is at school, would be to enroll them in martial arts.  Studies show that children who take martial arts do better in school, make better, more thought out decisions and are less likely to  be influenced by their peers.  Martial arts give kids the confidence and the knowledge to be able to resolve bullying with their words before any physical altercations are to happen

Brazilian jiu-jitsu, is a martial art discipline that uses grappling and ground-fighting techniques similar to judo and jiu-jitsu.  It can teach kids to be stronger, more confident and less prone to bullying.  Many children face the problem of being bullied and are vulnerable to various anti-social elements. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu can help a child tackle this problem.  The fundamentals of Brazilian jiu-jitsu focus on how a smaller, weaker person can defend against a larger opponent through the use of leverage and flexibility.  It equips the child with the knowledge and skills to intelligently cope with bullying and the skills to protect himself.
