#RefugeeJitsu in Charlotte: July 2, 2017
from Dirty White Belt Radio · host Jeff Shaw
We've always believed in the power of jiujitsu to change lives for the better -- and to bring people together across the lines that often divide us. RefugeeJitsu, a program in Charlotte founded by Renzo Gracie brown belt and Bible teacher J.M. Smith, is proving it. Every week a group of kids from all around the world, from different cultures and faith traditions, meets to train -- and learning jiujitsu together is having a tangible impact on their lives and the lives of others in the community. It's a beautiful story of what's possible from jiujitsu.
