  •  The Benefits of Jiujitsu for Kids with ADHD

    The Benefits of Jiujitsu for Kids with ADHD

    Introduction ADHD or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a common occurrence among children. Kids with ADHD usually have high energy, short attention span and restlessness. Thus, they often cannot participate in seated activities long enough to complete the required tasks. Sports like Brazilian Jiujitsu tend to be best for kids with ADHD.

    WHY IS BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU ONE OF THE BEST SELF-DEFENSE SYSTEMS FOR ADULTS AND CHILDREN?

    Anyone interested in self-defense should have at least some fundamentals in every area of fighting. The truth is that most people simply are not conditioned to the stresses of physical violence or even the mere threat of physical violence. Many people don’t realize the mental fight that accompanies the physical fight in a self-defense situation. The result is a panicked mess of limbs with minimal to no guiding intelligence in the attack or defense. Brazilian Jiujitsu gives its practitioners a sense of body and situational awareness while enabling them to defend themselves against attackers of all shapes and sizes.
