Starting Martial Arts can be a life changer for many people. These combat styles offer more than fighting techniques you can use to defend yourself; they provide you with a healthy way of life, one that helps you manage all the stress you have to deal with and turns you into a healthier version of yourself.
Learning an art like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a lifelong journey that will enrich other areas of your life.
“Martial arts has given me a lot of balance in my life,” Michael explains. “There are a lot of people who have busy lives, who have stressful work lives. When you walk in the doors and hit the mats, you have to be focused on what you’re doing in front of you and that has huge therapeutic value in your life. When you have the sort of ability to focus on one thing and have presence of mind, it’s almost like meditation.”
To get the most out of your martial arts training, it is important that you find a martial arts gym with competent instructors. RockStar Martial Arts, servicing Frisco, Prosper and Little Elm, has become a known destination for top instructors and legends of the sport. To be exposed to that level of a teacher in the sport is quite rare and special. There are not too many places that can offer that.
As important as it is to have good instructors, it’s equally important to find a gym that has a positive, family-friendly atmosphere. You want a well-equipped gym and instructors who don’t play favorites. That is another benefit of training at RockStar Martial Arts. The culture stresses respect and the students look out for each other. Training at a gym like that allows students to grow to their full potential.
In Frisco, Little Elm and Prosper, there are many gyms to choose from, but not many that can compare to RockStar Martial Arts. “I was doing my research and came across RockStar Martial Arts. I tried a few gyms, but I saw the quality of the instructors RockStar had with huge accomplishments in the sport. I showed up for a class and was really impressed with the instruction. I really liked the quality of the gym, the culture of the gym. It seemed like a great environment. It was a no-brainer; I kept coming back. For me, RockStar has a really great community. We spend a lot of time on the mats but at the end of the day, we give each other a handshake and we’re friends off the mat. I really appreciate that. I really like that kind of culture and environment. It’s a really respectful place.”
The positive atmosphere at RockStar has made it possible for Michael to stick to the training. His reward? He’s in better shape than ever, more disciplined than ever and his focus has improved.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu really is a great sport. You’ll get to meet all sorts of people, many of whom will become lifelong friends, and you’ll get a phenomenal workout every time you train. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is also one of the most effective martial arts in the world, making it a great way to defend yourself if the need ever arises.
