Chris Rekow Testimonial

I train with Lou Rodriguez in Danbury and just wanted to take a minute and let you know how great he is. I recently injured my back (hopefully not very severely, but they tell me I have 3 herniated disks), and not only has Lou contacted me to try and set up time to do drills privately, but another student in the class has also called to check in to
see when I can return to class.

Lou has offered to stay late or come early, whichever is more convenient to me, to do drills or whatever my back can take, until I’m healed and ready to spar again. I know that Lou has a full time job away from Jiu-Jitsu, so I know that whatever time he offers comes at the expense of something else in his life. I truly believe this is the TRUE martial arts. No where else in my life do people offer their time at little to no gain to themselves simply because they want to help someone else achieve their goals. I hope you realize how lucky you are to have people like Lou in your network… It’s guys like Lou that make me want to heal so I can train again and continue on my path of bettering my Jiu-Jitsu and at the same time myself.

Thanks again for supporting Jiu-Jitsu in this area and bringing Royce Gracie into my life. Hope to see you soon!

Sincerely,
Chris Rekow
