The end of the 2019 competition season is coming up and with that the last major event of the year, the IBJJF No-Gi World Championship. Our athletes have been working hard to sharpen their skills, get in competition-ready shape, and prepare their minds for the trials of battle.
To step onto the competition mat is no easy task and we give huge amounts of respect to any athlete willing to put it on the line. We don't believe it's medals that define you, but your heart, your courage.
So regardless of what happens out on the mat this weekend, you've already won in our eyes. Good luck to everyone competing and representing the Hyperfly flag!
