Caio Terra: “When I First Started Training Jiu-Jitsu, I Was Forced To Do It By My Mother”

Remember that activity that you didn’t really want to do when you were a kid, but your parents forced you to do it… And then, eventually, you grew to enjoy it?

Well, such was the case with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for Caio Terra! He didn’t want to train BJJ, but his mother made him to.
Terra shared more about the story in an interview with BJJEE:

When I first started training jiu jitsu, I was forced to do it by my mother. So… I never gave BJJ a chance.

The moment I started wanting to train was when my mother told me that I didn’t have to train anymore.
When she didn’t force me anymore, that is when I made a choice to keep on training – and that’s when I found love in Jiu-Jitsu.

Furthermore, when he first started, he wasn’t particularly good either:

I wasn’t really good. I couldn’t do any of the techniques that we practiced, that we drilled and did during sparring, plus I was too small and really weak.
Everyone was much bigger than me.

So… Although people would say that Jiu-Jitsu wasn’t for me, back then I would look at my teachers who were small compared to the other people, but that have still been able to defeat bigger training partners.

For that reason, I thought – if they could, why wouldn’t I be able to do it as well?

And that’s how it all started… Read more about Caio Terra’s story on this link.
