Jitu Smith - 2nd Degree Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt
Lineage: Carlos Gracie - Carlos Gracie, Jr. - Roberto Maia
Jitu has had a lifelong interest in martial arts and practiced as a child. His love for the grappling arts was stoked upon seeing the original ufcs and this "gentle art" dominating. After training with various people in untraditional settings he came to find Boston BJJ and studied under Roberto Maia. His hopes are to be able to share the art with all and give back what was given to him!
