Professors Caique and Dangelo with his kids class at SHBJJ.
Continuing with the plan to take Jiu-Jitsu to all parts of the world, our GMI SHBJJ in Hong Kong intends to revolutionize the local scenario of our sport.
For this, the biggest investment was in specializing in basic education, with the essence of Jiu-Jitsu well adjusted to give children and young apprentices the best in leverage, falls, and lifestyle techniques.
Combining Jiu-Jitsu with yoga training, stretching, and creating healthy habits for their students, teachers Dangelo and Caique intend to form an army of great fighters and better people in the region.
To better understand the basis of this mission, our team spoke with Caique Loyolla, a black belt, and professor at SHBJJ, and he explained his plan of action and mission in China with the BJJ.
