The Be Like Water BJJ MMA Story
I'm Michael from Be Like Water BJJ/MMA.
We are very excited to provide our community with excellent Martial Arts training & fitness. I have been in the fitness industry professionally for 30 years. I possess a true passion for changing and saving lives through fitness and wellness.
My fitness journey began when I was just 2 years old. My mom, to protect herself, began taking Karate classes at the local YWCA in Tucson, Arizona in 1976. Lacking a babysitter, she would take me and my two older brothers with her to class. I would try my best to kick and punch like Mom.
We were all able to do numerous push-ups and sit-ups at a very young age. She eventually became a 2nd-degree black belt in Okinawan Shorin Ryu Karate and taught for 4 1/2 years to provide for us and put herself through nursing school. We had moved to the Houston area and all took lessons from her along with about 80 other students. I learned confidence, respect, and self-discipline by attending Martial Arts and fitness classes. We were able to defend ourselves when bullies came after my brothers and I.
Today, I have two children of my own who are following in my footsteps. There is no substitute for the valuable lessons I learned in my childhood. We hope to provide the same for the families in our community.
Thank you,
