Jiu-Jitsu in Public Schools with Black Belt Chris Ortiz

Welcome to the Jiu Jitsu Dummies Podcast, presented by Black Belt Digital Marketing and AcademySafe.org Welcome to the Jiu-Jitsu Dummies Podcast! In this pivotal Episode 177, we sit down with Black Belt Chris Ortiz, an educator who is fighting a challenging battle off the mats: getting jiu-jitsu approved and integrated into the public school curriculum. Chris shares the compelling story of his own jiu-jitsu journey and gives us a raw, behind-the-scenes look at the roadblocks, speed bumps, and bureaucratic hurdles he’s encountered while trying to implement the program at his own school. This is a critical conversation about the discipline, confidence, and self-defense skills jiu-jitsu offers students, and the powerful advocacy required to bring those benefits into our education system. Tune in to hear how Chris is working to change the system from the inside out.   Instagram handle: @chrisortiz3946   Thank you to Episode Sponsors:  Black Belt Digital Marketing - Request a FREE Review of your company's online presence today!
