There is something special about bringing the gift of Jiu-Jitsu to people who wouldn’t normally have access to it. This is what British BJJ black belt Sam Crook has done and better yet, he is doing entirely for free.
Sam is teaching children and adults Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Grappling in the town of Batie, in Cameroun at the Francis Ngannou foundation.
The town of Batie is the birth place of UFC heavyweight fighter Francis Ngannou, who started the his foundation a few years back.
Sam is doing his part in growing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the continent of Africa.
