Jenarae Benavente
I started training Jiu Jitsu after being introduced to it by my cousin. Seeing the positive impact it had on his life inspired me to start training. Jiu Jitsu appealed to me because of the principle that through a combination of leverage, technique, and strategy a smaller statured person like myself could defeat a larger/stronger opponent.
It is through Jiu Jitsu that I can empower others to build their confidence, discipline and resilience both on and off the mats. Witnessing someone discover their inner strength is incredibly fulfilling. It’s a testament to the transformative power Jiu Jitsu can have on one’s life.
It is often said that half the battle is showing up. I appreciate those who make the sacrifice to come to class. I value the commitment and effort that it takes to be consistent.
My training partners, Professors, and family are constant sources of inspiration. Their drive and passion motivate me every day. I admire those who are in the persistent pursuit of becoming better versions of themselves, who persevere through difficult times and maintain their authenticity.
