From Pro-Athlete to BJJ White Belt - Embrace the Challenge - From Ice to Mat: How Jiu Jitsu Changed Scott Romfo’s Life
Once a pro hockey athlete, Scott Romfo thought he knew the limits of physical and mental endurance. Yet his life took an unexpected turn when his youngest son challenged him to try Jiu Jitsu. A husband and father of three, Scott embraced this new adventure, unaware of how deeply it would impact him.
At first glance, Jiu Jitsu seemed entirely foreign. But for Scott, this new discipline offered a chance to reconnect with the adrenaline of his sports days. Beyond the physicality, Jiu Jitsu opened new mental horizons for Scott. The necessity to anticipate opponents' moves before they happen honed his strategic thinking. It was akin to a chess game, where each match sharpened his mind and focus.
More than a new fitness regime, Jiu Jitsu became Scott’s mental retreat. It provided a space to decompress, taking him away from daily stresses and into a world of learning and mastery. On the mat, he found clarity and calm.
Not only did Scott benefit personally, but his family's involvement reinforced togetherness. His two children participating in the Kids Program cultivated a shared passion and exciting dinner conversations about their latest techniques. The Houzn community brought new friendships and support, extending beyond practice to a more enriched social life.
