Strength & Kindness.

We spoke to the kids about something that happened at school recently.

Two girls fighting… and almost immediately everyone around them gets their phones out to record it.

My question to them was simple:

Where’s the kindness in that?
Where’s the integrity?
Where’s the morality?

Jiu Jitsu teaches you how to become physically capable. Stronger. More confident. Better able to handle yourself.

But strength on its own isn’t particularly impressive.

What impresses me is strength balanced by kindness.

Being capable, but choosing restraint.
Being strong, but looking after people.
Doing the right thing when everyone else is doing something different.

That’s the standard.

And I want our kids to hold themselves to a higher one. ❤️

After the amazing response to our Ladies Only Taster Day, we’re really excited to officially launch our brand-new Ladies Only Jiu Jitsu programme at Dream Art Bradford.

The feedback from the taster session was incredible, but what we loved most was seeing women coming together, having a laugh, supporting each other, trying something completely new and creating such a brilliant atmosphere.

That’s exactly what we want this class to become. ❤️

A place to meet people, make new friends, build confidence, get fitter, learn something new and learn how to handle yourself.

And for that hour, it’s just about YOU.

Not being a mum.
Not being a wife, girlfriend, daughter or worker.
Just an hour that belongs to you.

Competing in Jiu Jitsu is a special thing.

Two people step onto a mat and share something.

Struggle. Pressure. Fear. Challenge. Adversity.

For those few minutes, you need each other.

One person might get their hand raised at the end, but both people walk away changed in some way.

Sometimes only slightly. Sometimes profoundly.

Because challenge changes you. Adversity changes you.

You learn something about yourself. You gain an experience you couldn’t have had without the person standing across from you.

Two people sharing the same struggle, at the same time, together… because of each other.

Then it finishes.

A hand gets raised.

And sometimes you get a moment like this.

A hug. Respect. Gratitude for the experience you’ve just given each other.

That’s one of the beautiful things about Jiu Jitsu

NOBODY IS COMING TO SAVE YOU.

Become intrinsically self motivated……
Become disciplined…..

I think about them a little like a boxer thinks about the jab.

Not every attack needs to be a huge commitment.

From closed guard, the bigger attacks…armbars, triangles, sweeps….often require us to open the guard, create angles and accept a little more risk.

Small attacks allow us to stay structurally safe while still asking questions.

A wrist lock. A grip attack. Something that forces a reaction without giving away too much position.

Individually, they might seem insignificant.

But over time they change the rhythm of the exchange.

They create reactions.
They create hesitation.
They build pressure.

And in competition, sometimes they can even give you an advantage…which changes the tactical situation completely. Now your opponent has to make something happen.

Like the jab, the small attack doesn’t always finish the fight.

Sometimes its job is simply to make everything else possible.

Small attacks. Low risk. Constant questions

What a day yesterday at the National Masters BJJ Championships in Wolverhampton. 🏆🔥

To take such a big team down to what is essentially a national-level event, with some of the best Masters competitors in the country all chasing a national title, and see so many of our team step onto those mats and put themselves out there was amazing.

Massive respect to every single person who competed and represented Dream Art Bradford.

There were some brilliant performances throughout the day, but more importantly everyone came away with experience, lessons and things we can take straight back into the academy, work on and come back stronger from.

A couple of standout performances deserve a special mention…

Jacek Roszkowski had an unbelievable day at brown belt, winning his Gi division before going on to win the absolute as well — two National titles coming back to Bradford. 🥇🥇

Jake Elliott won his purple belt Gi division, then fought his way through a massive absolute category all the way to the final to take silver. He then came back again in the No-Gi and won his division there too.

Two golds and a silver. 🥇🥇🥈

But one of the biggest shout-outs of the whole weekend has to go to Richard Quirke.

Over the last few months Rich has put a huge amount of work into building our Masters competition team. Running the Sunday competition sessions, getting everybody together, creating the environment and basically building this team from scratch.

This Masters team is Rich’s baby.

And yesterday we came away with:

🏆 2nd Place Gi Team
🏆 2nd Place No-Gi Team

Those trophies are Rich’s trophies as much as anybody’s.

He built it.
He facilitated it.
He made it happen.

As a team we’re massively grateful for everything he’s put into this and incredibly proud of what he’s created.

Most of all though, we’re proud of every single person who stepped onto those mats yesterday.

Winning medals is brilliant.

But having the courage to step into a national competition, test yourself, represent your team and find out where you can improve is what this is really about.

Brilliant day.

Brilliant team.
