One year ago I was in a bike accident and I broke my top rib, separated three other ribs off of my sternum and had compression fractures in my T3 and T4 vertebra. For the first 10 weeks it was too painful (even with lots of drugs) to lay down in bed so I spent every night and day in a recliner. The bones are all healed now and much of the pain is gone. I want to give a shout out to Black Arrow Martial Arts jiu-jitsu for helping on my road to recovery. I wouldn't be as far along in my mobility, flexibility and weight loss without jiu-jitsu and the team at Black Arrow Martial Arts. Stay safe riding, count your blessings and if you've been looking for something to get in shape try jiu-jitsu!
Had a great time rolling with some tough guys can’t wait to go back.
I've been around the game for a long time on the West Coast Northern California scene. I've seen the fakes and dealt with the snakes. When I met Professor Jared and Professor Kyle a few years ago, they were very down to earth, respectful, humble and great at Jiu-Jitsu. Professor Jared comes from a great Lineage that he passes onto his students. The instruction by both Professor Jared and Professor Kyle is thorough and easy to digest. Black Arrow is up to date with Jiu-Jitsu in this advent of leg locks and ever evolving techniques. They do all this while maintaining the tradition of the gi techniques as well. You get a blend of new school and old school Jiu-Jitsu which in my opinion is the best recipe. Whether you want to compete or just train Professor Jared and the staff at Black Arrow Martial Arts are able to take you to the next level. I am happy to call Black Arrow Martial Arts my Jiu-Jitsu home.
