WHITE BELT: One ludicrous man’s efforts to overcome his demons by competing at BJJ
Share This
Description
The preposterous true story of one man's journey to the heart of combat sports. After years of being picked on and being bullied as a child and then through to adulthood, Ben Wilson had finally had enough. Throwing himself into the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, one of the world's most effective combat systems, seemed to be the solution. There was just one problem: to win even a fraction of self-respect, he'd have to get repeatedly beaten up by the exact kind of giants he feared in his everyday life. What follows, however, is a story of hilarity, hubris, despair and resurrection as Wilson attempts to exorcise the demons of his childhood in pursuit of self-renewal.
Ben Wilson is a multiple award-winning journalist, whose accolades include British magazine Writer of the Year.
