π₯ Confidence starts here. π₯
π₯ At Ryan Thomas BJJ, confidence is built in moments like this, when a student sees the results of their hard work, overcomes challenges and realizes they are capable of more than they once believed.
πͺ Jiu-Jitsu teaches young athletes to keep going when things get hard, to listen, to adjust, to respect the process and to trust the work they put in every week.
π That is why a raised hand means more than the end of a match. It represents discipline, courage and the quiet growth that happens every time they show up to train.
π₯ If your child is ready to build real confidence, schedule a FREE trial week through the link in our bio or Stories and experience the difference Jiu-Jitsu can make. π₯

π₯ Last week was a special one at Ryan Thomas BJJ, as two of our young students reached important milestones in their Jiu-Jitsu journeys. Wyatt earned his second degree on his gray and white belt, and Kaylee earned her gray and white belt. π
π We are very proud of both of them for their dedication, commitment, and progress on the mats. Moments like these reflect the effort and consistency they bring to every class, and it is always exciting to watch each student continue growing step by step.
π₯ Congratulations, Wyatt and Kaylee! Donβt forget that the entire Ryan Thomas BJJ family is very proud of both of you.

πΊπΈ More Than a Long Weekend πΊπΈ
ποΈ Today, the United States pauses to honor the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to the country. Memorial Day carries deep meaning across America, reminding families and communities of the courage, sacrifice and dedication that helped protect the freedoms we live with every day. ποΈ
π€ At Ryan Thomas Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, we believe values like discipline, respect, courage and service extend far beyond the mats. They are values that shape strong people, strong families and strong communities. π€
β€οΈ As we spend time with family and friends this Memorial Day, we also remember those whose sacrifice made those moments possible. β€οΈ
π From our Ryan Thomas BJJ family to yours, we wish everyone a meaningful and safe Memorial Day. πΊπΈ

π₯β¨ At Ryan Thomas BJJ, we believe real teaching happens on the mats.
Our coaches donβt just stand in the corner giving instructions. They train with the students, guide them closely and help each person grow through real experience, connection and trust.
πͺ As you can see in this moment between Professor Ryan Thomas and Lei, training side by side helps students develop technique, confidence and discipline inside a welcoming, motivating environment with a true team atmosphere.
π₯ This close connection between coaches and students makes a huge difference in the growth that happens both on and off the mats.
π Come experience it for yourself.

π₯β¨ Last week was a very special moment for our team as we celebrated the promotion of our student Ira.
πͺ Through hard work, consistency and dedication on the mats, Ira continues to grow step by step, always showing determination, respect and a great attitude during training. Belt promotions represent growth, discipline, commitment and all the effort built throughout the journey.
π¨βπ©βπ§ Family support also plays a huge role in moments like this. Behind every child growing on the mats, there are parents and family members encouraging, supporting and believing in the process every step of the way. Having his father, Coach Lake, by Iraβs side during this special moment made everything even more meaningful.
π₯ We are proud to see your evolution and excited to continue following your journey.
π Congratulations, Ira! The Ryan Thomas BJJ family is very proud of you.

π₯ Huge congratulations to our teammate Pilo Perez for an outstanding performance last weekend at the SubSpectrum BJJ tournament in Des Moines!
π₯ As a blue belt, Pilo stepped up to compete in the advanced division to challenge himself against high level competition. He also entered the absolute division for a chance to win the $500 cash prize, testing himself against anyone in the bracket regardless of size or weight class.
π₯ Pilo represented Ryan Thomas Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with toughness, composure and heart at one of the toughest no gi tournaments in the Midwest. We are proud of the hard work he puts in every single week, and it showed throughout the entire tournament.
π Great job, Pilo. Your team is proud of you!

π₯β¨ What are the benefits of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for adults over 30?
πͺ Life after 30 comes with responsibilities, stress and a busy routine. For many adults, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu becomes the perfect way to reconnect with both body and mind.
π§ BJJ helps improve fitness, discipline and confidence while also giving adults a healthy outlet to release stress and clear their minds after a long day.
π€ And beyond the training itself, Jiu-Jitsu creates something powerful: community. Real friendships, support and people growing together on and off the mats.
