Rivers BJJ is a Gustavo Dantas Association School located in Lawrence, KS, founded by GDJJ Third-degree black belt Trevor Rivers
This should be on your mind when learning a new concept or technique. Why do it in the first place? Why this particular angle? Why does this leverage work the way it does? How can I apply this in a new situation? It is not enough to know a technique, you must be able to understand the reasoning behind the technique. This way you can develop a problem-solving growth mindset that will ultimately help you both on and off the mats. We encourage questions during class, no matter if you are there for your first day or your thousandth.
The Big Question: WHY?
A unique structure: the family class.
BJJ often becomes a family affair, with either a child or parent starting first, then eventually bringing others in. We’ve decided to skip the steps and focus on creating a class where the entire family can learn, grow, and bond together.
