ABOUT ME

Hello there! My name is Rachel Gonzalez. I started Jiu-Jitsu in 2018 while attending Brigham Young University in Idaho. I was interested in becoming a law enforcement officer and wanted to get some self defense training. Although I wasn't able to train jiu-jitsu the whole time I haven't stopped loving it since that first class. If I can help someone else to learn to love jiu-jitsu too, this blog will have been worth it!

MONTHLY HIGHLIGHT

Jiu-Jitsu is always changing and growing. That's one of the reasons that I love it so much. When I train it's as if there are constantly doors opening in front of me that I didn't even know were there. I want to share some of those open doors and "lightbulb" moments. In writing them down I hope some of you will see doors opening as well.
