In August, we shared the incredible story of a group of jiu-jitsu athletes from Sudan who were making a dangerous 1,500 mile trek to Kenya to compete in the Nairobi Open. Countless jiu-jitsu practitioners from around the world shared their support and encouragement with the competitors, and after hearing that they’d made it safely to the event, many people wondered what had happened next.
Well, BJJ gear company Hyperfly and the Lionheart Initiative have teamed up to create a short film that picks up on where the group’s story left off. If you need any inspiration to show up and train hard at jiu-jitsu this week, this could be just what you need.
