Gracie Mag #159
Saturday, June 12th, 2010From: www.graciemag.com
Jiu-Jitsu’s loyal subjects have gotten used to the idea the martial art will only make it to the Olympics once it has conquered the world, TV and children the planet over.
Hogwash. GRACIEMAG positions itself and wagers the path points in the opposite direction. It’s by conquering the world, kids and TV that the sport will inevitably make it to the Olympic Games one day. Slowly but surely, with perseverance.
We make this assertion after rereading the latest GRACIEMAG cover story. Jiu-Jitsu, at least in Abu Dhabi, has come to power at the hands of Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed, the brother of black belt Tahnoon bin Zayed.
