ThE Why, Not Just The HOw
WE ARE NOW OFFERING JUDO WEDNESDAYS at 5:30PM!
Too often Brazilian Jiu-jitsu schools focus only on the ground game. Besides having a strong wrestling component, we are now offering judo weekly! Come learn foot sweeps, throws, and more, with a focus on judo for BJJ competition rules, which are less strict than traditional judo competition rules.
Rivers BJJ is a Gustavo Dantas Association School located in Lawrence, KS, founded by GDJJ Third-degree black belt Trevor Rivers
This should be on your mind when learning a new concept or technique. Why do it in the first place? Why this particular angle? Why does this leverage work the way it does? How can I apply this in a new situation? It is not enough to know a technique, you must be able to understand the reasoning behind the technique. This way you can develop a problem-solving growth mindset that will ultimately help you both on and off the mats. We encourage questions during class, no matter if you are there for your first day or your thousandth.
The Big Question: WHY?
Kids and adult classes at the same time, thanks to two rooms
BJJ often becomes a family affair, with either a child or parent starting first, then eventually bringing others in. We will be offering kids class in one room and adult concepts and fundamental classes in the next room, so if your time is limited, parents can get a work out in too!
