How did your journey in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu begin, and what does it mean to you now?
Hi, Iβm Billie. I started Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu when I was only 9 years old. My Mum put me into it just to have some sort of self defence and I am so happy I started! As soon as I was on the mats I knew this was my thing. Unfortunately I was in a gym that would hold me back and rushed me to compete at a level I was not ready to compete at. Then I discovered my amazing gym that I train at today and I wouldnβt change a thing. My team is so supportive and I donβt know what I would be doing without them. I am excited to be competing in ADCC worlds in Poland in September and I canβt believe how far I have come. Now I donβt know what I would do without BJJ I love it more than anything in the world and Iβm looking forward to seeing whatβs to come for me in the future. I would highly recommend this sport because it has changed my life. βΊοΈπ
