jitsu places greater emphasis on mat work with arm and leg bars, locks, and other groundwork techniques used to immobilize an opponent and force him or her to surren- der the match. Throws and other techniques are still part of the training for a fighter but during competition, the judges place a higher value on matwork. It has become one of the most popular styles in North America since 1993 when

The young martial artist looks forward to further challenges in his chosen sport, including more competitions this year, and to having a jiu jitsu school that is closer to home for his training and sparring practice.

Track season for athletes at local high schools finish up this month with the EOSSAA and Eastern Regionals. Results will be available in the Tribune Express next week.
