Where Passion for Jiu Jitsu Meets Purpose with Charity
The sport of jiu jitsu is growing in popularity, and there are plenty of athletes with a desire to do good. At BJJ for the Planet, we are focused on doing what we can to tap into cross section of grapplers and charity to make an impact to the planet and the people on it. This is achieved through two primary means:
- Charityspar: An app that allows grapplers to challenge eachother to sparring on behalf of charities. The winner earns donations for their charity of choice. Fight for the cause you care about today!
- Retreats: We partner with organizations like Guardian Gyms to visit schools that are focused on giving back to their local community. Come train with legends of the sport and share jiu jitsu with less fortunate!
