On Jiu Jitsu

By Chris Matakas

Chris Matakas, the leading author in Jiu Jitsu and Personal Development, shares the ultimate framework through which to use Jiu Jitsu as a vehicle for personal growth.

From the author:

I've been teaching Brazilian Jiu Jitsu since 2008. I have seen many students use Jiu Jitsu as a vehicle for personal development, completely changing their lives off the mat through their experiences in the academy. Unfortunately, these individuals are the minority. Most students leave so much on the table. They never use Jiu Jitsu for its highest good - achieving their potential off the mat - because they've never been presented with a clear framework for doing so.

When I opened my academy in 2017, I wrote this book to teach my students how to maximize their personal development through Jiu Jitsu. Guard passes and submissions were not enough. I wanted them to learn how to use this art as a vehicle for personal transformation.

I want the same for you.

This book will show you HOW to use Jiu Jitsu as a vehicle for personal development, so you can get the most out of your training (and life). Among other things, you will learn:
Why we need Jiu JitsuThe role Jiu Jitsu plays in the life of the developing individualHow to achieve your potential through Jiu JitsuThe most pressing problem we all face that Jiu Jitsu can solveHow to use Jiu Jitsu to develop our virtuesHow to use Jiu Jitsu to remove our vicesHow to use Jiu Jitsu as a vehicle for self-awareness and personal developmentThe underlying philosophy of personal growth through Jiu JitsuHow to develop meaningful relationships in Jiu JitsuHow to achieve your potential through Jiu JitsuHow to avoid the most common mistakes in grapplingWhy your progress matters much more than you thinkThis book, which I wrote as a love letter to Jiu Jitsu, has already served thousands. I hope the same for you. The more you grow, the better this world will be. I am rooting for you.
