Do You Know How To Defend Yourself? William Vandry Can Teach You
Every day, someone finds themselves in a situation where they have to fight. And sadly, many people don't know how to handle an unarmed attacker, especially one who is bigger and stronger, which is why most people in these circumstances become victims instead of victors.
So, how can you possible defend yourself against a bigger, stronger opponent and come out on top without a weapon? Martial arts, specifically, Jiu-Jitsu.
It's easy to dismiss martial arts as an effective defense in real-world combat situations, but the fact is that there are systems designed specifically for these occasions and learning them can mean the difference, quite literally, between life and death.
Jiu-Jitsu is but one martial art system, but it's becoming increasingly popular thanks to shows like Ultimate Fighter, where combatants routinely use the techniques of Jiu-Jitsu to take down and submit their opponents.
What makes Jiu-Jitsu so effective is that it's both a martial art and a combat sport that helps smaller people successfully defend themselves against bigger, stronger opponents by using leveraging techniques. These leveraging techniques commonly employ joint locks and choke holds, and as any observer of mixed martial arts competitions can tell you, these techniques are very effective ways of subduing an opponent.
In order to truly master the Jiu-Jitsu martial art and combat system, one must be sure to learn from a master teacher like William Vandry. William is an expert 2nd degree black belt who studied under the legendary Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Master, Carlos Machado and his brothers in Brazil. In fact, William was one of the first Texans to receive a black belt under Machado, and because of his expert training, he's successfully competed in four Pan American World Championships where he earned two silver medals and one gold.
Today, William runs the Vandry BJJ Academy in Austin, TX and it's one of the premiere Jiu-Jitsu training academies in the state. They specialize in training everyone from beginners to expert competitors in the art of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. If you're not into learning Jiu-Jitsu, the Vandry BJJ Academy also offers instruction on MMA and Muay Thai training taught by undefeated MMA competitor, Robby Rabadi.
In addition to being a great self-defense system, Jiu-Jitsu is also a recognized method for maintaining good physical and mental health.
