Jason Khalipa has been in the world of sports for quite sometime. Under his belt is 2008 Crossfit Championship as well as other accomplishments.
But a couple of months back he got into jiu-jitsu saying he’s constantly trying things outside of his comfort zone and developing new skills.
In his short tenure as a jiu-jiteiro he even managed to meet the two superstars – Joao and Paolo Miyao.
