KID NEWS 07-4:



Kid Peligro Jiu-Jitsu News . . . 'O Globo' and BJJ - Emirates BJJ and more
Submitted by: Kid Peligro

After many many years of only reporting hte negative side of Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilians Top National newspaper O Globo did a very positive story on the work of Brasa team instructor's Rodrigo 'Comprido', Felipe Costa & Michelle Matta's work with the blind community in Rio. The Brasa trio has been voluteering their time to conduct a class especially designed for the blind. The class is such a big success that it not only attracted the attention of the newspaper but it also boasts a waiting list' of students wanting to participate.

Congratulations !!!



Carlao Santos and Stirling University Connect

Black Belt Carlao Santos never ends with his quest to expand BJJ around the World, his latest effort is linking Stirling University and members Dr Anne Stokes and Phil Leeke with Carlos and Suyan of the Emirates bjj team.

Anne will provide a letter making Carlos Santos an official representative of Stirling University. Below are links to show the wonderful facilities of Stirling University! Stirling is a Centre of Excellence for sport and the Scottish Institute for sports is located on their campus.

Another possibility as well as the football and golf is that in the future they'll consider giving students both an educational programme and a jiu jitsu training camp throughout the summer. With the combined attraction of a beautiful Scottish University and the reputation of BTT/BK members Calrao is on to a winner.
