Book offers positions and holds in English, Portuguese and Arabic

An unprecedented book was just released in Jordan: a dictionary of Jiu-Jitsu positions, exercises and

moves in the Arabic language.

 

"This endeavor has been in the making for some time," says black belt Zaid Mirza, leader of Team Jordan. "We had some trouble getting students to understand the words in English and Portuguese. A good part of the students, like soldiers in the army and kids, had trouble. Now with the dictionary in Arabic it makes things easier."
