Jon Jarvis is a Black Belt, and Owner of Kent Grapple basing in Sittingbourne, Kent. He started Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in his early twenties after being inspired by a Head and Arm Triangle secured by Brock Lesner back in the day. Jon started his competition career during his White and Blue Belt, and continues to build resilience of not giving up, through to his Brown Belt days when he commenced his journey into starting his own Jiu Jitsu school. One of the challenges Jon is seeking to overcome is returning to competition.

Before the 18th September! https://adaptjj.com/collections/unreleased Paul Skivington is a Brown Belt and has been training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu for around 7 years. He came to the sport as a competitive player, having lost his leg at 23 and only gotten into sports again at age 30. Being a boxer and golfer and previously in the military, he realised that his identity was very much focused in the past. Like many of us he wished to be the best person for his children, and to learn to focus on the future. Competing three weeks into his jiu jitsu career is a massive inspiration to any of us. One of Paul's goals for the future is to promote and support Para Jiu Jitsu here in the UK. To keep his cardio at a peak level, he trains on a Spin bike on a very regular basis, and anything that Paul now does has to contribute to his progress in Jiu Jitsu, especially to enable him competing at every level. Topics:Competitive sportsPersonal identityBeing a role modelCross trainingDiscipline Para Jiu JitsuBLESMAAmputee athleteSpinningCoachingDetermination GO FOLLOWPaul on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legless9/Keep Showing Up Clothing on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/keep_showing_up_clothing/ Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JiuJitsuLou Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jiu.jitsu.louFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jiujitsuloupodcast PRODUCTION CREDIT: Kerr Mathieson of Audio OutsourceMUSIC CREDIT:ARTIST: Maleki Ram | TRACK: Just A Little Boy This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
