Professor Juan Rodriguez Surgery
Donation protected
A few weeks ago, our beloved friend, mentor and professor, Juan Rodriguez, suffered a non Jiu Jitsu related knee injury.
Juan’s MRI revealed a complete ACL tear, which will require surgery in a few weeks. Juan recently opened his own Renzo Gracie Jiu Jitsu Academy in Fort Lauderdale. Obviously, this injury could not have come at a worse time for him. However, as expected, his teachings continue on a daily basis.
As a Professor, Juan’s passion for the sport of Jiu Jitsu is second to none. Juan’s love, knowledge and dedication to Jiu Jitsu is clearly apparent to anyone that has ever met or trained with him. As a business owner, Juan has opened his academy with open arms to those who want to learn the art of Jiu Jitsu, even to those who are not in the financial position to fully join an academy. Juan has also immersed himself into the community, trying to reach as many people as possible. As an individual, Juan is one of the most generous and genuine persons one can ever meet.
We want to help Juan get through this difficult time in his life, just like he has helped so many others in the past. Our goal is to raise $7,500.00 to cover the medical expenses for Juan’s surgery. Please consider donating or sharing this message on social media.
Thank you!
