Congratulations to Coach Bryan Tamayo, Pacific Top Team Ecuador and Team Viejo Luchador! They hosted the first ever IJEF Ecuador Kids Tournament! We also want to congratulation all of the kids on an outstanding job! Coach Bryan and his staff in Porto Viejo, Ecuador have been running the IJEF project there for almost a year now and have almost 50 students consistently practicing in the IJEF kids classes. Coach Bryan started by advertising in the local slum which is on an adjacent hill facing his academy. He advertised to parents of children who had no activity to do and who had no money to afford activities for their children. The slum that they are a part of is called, San Pablo and is notorious for poverty and violence. Coach Bryan brought these children in with the support of the International Jiu Jitsu Education Fund sponsorship and now these children are training and have uniforms and hope. This tournament is a testament to their hard work and that of Coach Bryan and his staff. Congratulations everyone on your hard work!
