ROLLING FOR RECOVERY

The US Veterans Foundation has partnered with several local gyms to offer a program that helps veterans combat PTSD through Martial Arts (specifically Brazilian Jujitsu).

Rolling For Recovery

Many of our US veterans suffer from conditions like PTSD and depression. It has been shown that combat sports, and the martial arts in general, offer many benefits for those who suffer these conditions:

  • Self-care

    Martial arts training can help veterans build relationships, to set boundaries, and de-stress.

  • Emotional expression

    Martial arts can provide an outlet for veterans to express themselves within a positive environment.

  • Improved sense of well-being

    Training in combat sports can provide and avenue for growth of self-esteem and self-worth.

  • Building relationships

    Being a part of a team is something all veterans are familiar with and martial arts training requires trust and camaraderie between training partners and team members. Because of this commonality, martial arts training can help restore a veteran's association with a positive group of like-minded individuals. This provides an avenue for them to build positive, long-term relationships.

If you or someone you know could benefit from the "Rolling 4 Recovery" program, please reach out to us for more information. We will be happy to assist with the application process!
