“Jiu-Jitsu puts you completely in the moment, where you must have a complete focus on finding a solution to the problem. This trains the mind to build that focus, to increase your awareness, your capacity to solve problems.” --Rickson Gracie
OUR MISSION IS TO CREATE A PLACE FOR VETERAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS TO APPLY SKILLS ALREADY KNOWN, LEARN NEW SKILLS AND CREATE A POSITIVE ENVIRONMENT. WE VALUE THE OPPORTUNITY TO HELP VETERANS ADDRESS PAST CHALLENGES AND PREPARE THEM FOR THE ONES AHEAD.
Practice what you know to be right. Be good to yourself and those around you. Train your mind and body to be strong so that you can face any challenge.
Remember what you have lived through, and attempt to make the world a better place. Value your strengths but be willing to work on your weaknesses. Control your thoughts, for the way you feel is the way you behave.
Look to those around you, find solutions, solve problems and create your best future. Endure the obstacles, have patience and no matter what, FIND A WAY.
Give unselfishly to this journey. Be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
Advanced members will exercise control when training/teaching newer members. Beginners will exercise control and apply the skills you are being taught. Remember why you are here.
Respect the instructors by listening and applying yourself fully to the knowledge that is being passed. Respect each other by keeping each other healthy, by not injuring each other, so we can continue training.
Try to develop a habit of making yourself better. Being coachable allows you to be flexible and adaptable to life’s challenges. By helping others, strengthen your character and our whole veteran community.

Working on having a healthy body is secondary to having a healthy mind. Control your emotions, thoughts, and words. Make an effort to always build each other up.
*There is zero tolerance for fighting. Violation of this rule will result in removal from the program.
* No one will be allowed to train without first providing a state ID and signing a medical release form. (This is a one-time thing)
