Father + Student
Leo Meija
He first walked into Kihon because of his son. Then Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gave him a challenge, an outlet and a journey they could share.
His Kihon Journey
He started because of his son.
Leo originally came to Kihon looking for something positive and active for his son. After watching him train, compete and improve, Leo found himself drawn to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and decided to step onto the mat too.
Training became more than exercise. Leo gained confidence, found an outlet after difficult days at work and developed the knowledge to better understand and support his son's martial arts journey.
Most importantly, martial arts gave father and son something they could practice, talk about and look back on together.

Leo also shares what he saw change in his son — from discipline and confidence to the habits that carried into school and home.
