The Gift That Keeps on Giving!

Wouldn't you love to give someone special a gift that could change their lives for the better EVERYDAY....FOR-EVER?
Give the gift of Jiu Jitsu!
De Boa offers lifetime memberships, 6 month plans, 1 year plans etc....Jiu Jitsu WILL dramatically improve the life of your loved one!
There couldn't be a better gift for a teen that might be hanging out with the wrong crowd, a child needed some discipline, a Mom that needs some "me" time (along with the BEST self defense for women), your husband that needs a "get away" after a long day at the office.

Why Jiu Jitsu? and Why De Boa?
Jiu Jitsu is The Most Effective Martial Art due to it's effectiveness for self-defense. The UFC has been proving that fact for many years. It's also a great way to get in shape, lose weight and even make new friends.  You will receive incredible  BJJ instruction, a family atmosphere, and learn the true ART of Jiu Jitsu at our school. No matter what your intention of learning BJJ is!  You won’t find a closer group of people who truly believe that we are a family. You won’t find a more welcoming group of teammates who are more willing to share their knowledge or an instructor who cares more about his students and their progression.

Why Women should learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu:
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu helps women avoid dangerous situations and empowers them with simple escape techniques. It is designed to help a woman save herself from her attacker, whether she is on her feet or on the ground. 
Brazilian Jiu Jitsu involves submission and ground fighting techniques. It focuses on gaining a dominant position over your opponent with the help of techniques such as chokeholds, joint-locks, compression lock, etc. Most martial arts need the practitioners to be physically strong to face a heavy-weight opponent. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu needs more of body mechanisms rather than strength, speed and weight of the person practicing it. They can therefore be used effectively by anyone of any age, size, strength or level of physical fitness.
A common way for men to win a fight over women is to knock her down to the ground and control the whole situation. The ground fighting techniques of the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu focuses on acting against your opponent with your back on ground plus taking the advantage of the right situations and poses of the opponent.
It's also great for losing weight, getting in shape and feeling confident and empowered!

Jiu Jitsu for kids:
Introducing a child to the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu  is an excellent way to ensure they will grow up with a strong foundation of patience, confidence and discipline. While some parents are hesitant to get their child involved in any contact sports, the art of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is far gentler than you might think. Your child is more likely to be injured in a playground unsupervised than they would under the care and direction of a good instructor.

Jiu Jitsu is great for team building, conflict resolution, respect, self defense and self discipline!

Benefits of Jiu JItsu Private Lessons

11/23/2014

0 Comments

 
Private lessons are available from all instructors at De Boa Jiu Jitsu in Surprise Arizona.  There are many benefits to private lessons in Jiu Jitsu, I am going to highlight five of them today:

1.        Individualized attention

Jiu Jitsu is a very detail oriented martial art, Instructors have a hard time making sure everyone captures the technique fully in class.  The instructor has the job of getting around to everyone in class.  In a private lesson you have your instructor’s full attention allowing you to ask about the smallest details and be corrected on minor mistakes.

2.       Crash course in your instructors game

By the time any Jiu Jitsu player gets to Brown Belt they probably have developed a game that is completely unique for them.  In finding your own game there is no replacement for mat time, but it sure doesn’t hurt to study how your instructor developed his/her own game.  Often in private lessons you get to see the sneaky pieces of your instructor’s game.

3.       More time to spend on each technique

In a class flow there is only an allotted time for technique.  In the allotted time both you are your partner needs time to dive into the technique taught.  Often as a beginner you need a little bit more time on the technique.  Private lessons are all about you and there is no sharing of the time you need to put into each technique.

4.       Develop your individualized game.

During the rolling portion of class and your private lesson you have probably noticed things that you are good at and things you struggle with.  In a private lesson your instructor can build off the things that you are good at, and fill in gaps in which you struggle.  Building on the things that come natural to your body style, flexibility and athleticism is the start of creating your own unique game.

5.       Extra Time to roll with your instructor

Rolling or live sparring is such an important part of grasping Jiu Jitsu.  In live sparring you need to be able to take the techniques that you have learned and make them applicable without a compliant partner.  As a beginner this is often one of the most difficult areas to achieve as you are often simply fighting to survive rather trying to implement techniques.  One thing that often helps is rolling with higher belts that are willing to take some extra time to give you pointers.  In your private lesson your instructor rolls with you with the sole purpose of making you better.  So you might notice a difference on the way your instructor approaches a roll during a private lessons and the way he/she approaches a roll on the times you might get to roll with them in class.

Overall private lessons can be a great tool to speed up your learning curve in Jiu Jitsu.  They are a great supplement to your class schedule that works with your own busy schedule.  Private lessons are NOT a suitable replacement for class.  If your are in the El Mirage, Goodyear, Avondale, Peoria, Glendale, Luke Air Force Base or Surprise area come swing by and learn the best way to get in shape and protect yourself.  De Boa Jiu Jitsu Academy Surprise Arizona.
