Everyone

​If it were easy everyone would do it, that’s what people say about any number of things. I don’t know if that’s true though. For the able bodied, walking isn’t particularly difficult, but very few people consciously take walks even though the benefits have been proven. I’ve offered free classes to police in the past and the only people who took me up on it, were the cops who already paid to train with me. Making something more accessible doesn’t necessarily make it better, sometimes it dilutes the thing. The idea of something is different from its actuality, and trying to make something that is for a specific niche more general might be more hurtful than helpful. I think everyone can do Jiu Jitsu, I think everyone should do Jiu Jitsu, but I think people need to bring themselves up to Jiu Jitsu rather than having it brought down to them.
