Competition is an important piece to most peoples journey in Jiu Jitsu. As a competitor you're not guaranteed to win, but without a doubt should be prepared to learn and grow. Jiu Jitsu competitions break up the competitors into age, belt and weight class to insure tough matches all around.
Did you play high school sports? Do you miss the competition?
This is what leads many athletes towards Jiu Jitsu. It is refreshing to be able to compete at the highest level, from the 5 year old day one white belt, to the 40 something year old Black Belt. Goals can be set and with the right training met.
