FEATURED BUSINESS HOW DOES JIU JITSU WORK? It eliminates fear because in learning Jiu Jitsu a student learns techniques that enable them to not only defend themselves but to overcome any opponent. Also, in the Jiu Jitsu classes themselves, every student competes against much larger students and so the fear of “someone is bigger than me� becomes a non-issue to them. Bullies can see, through the opponents reaction to their intimidation, whether a child is a target or not. Because the child gains invaluable knowledge of how to defend themselves, that look of intimidation is replaced with one of self confidence.
