SEMINARS

Building Communities Around Jiu Jitsu

Obsidian hosts events in Jiu Jitsu academies, typically divided into three stages: training, discussion and reception. Seminar are curated to cater to mixed levels (including absolute beginners).

The purpose of these seminars are primarily to create a community, connection between members, increase understanding of challenges for men and discuss how to manage them.

The seminars are hosted by the 10 x World Champion Roger Gracie, or other Jiu Jitsu and Martial Art competitors. Obsidian events are casual and friendly in their style and approach, mainly aiming to help participants bond and connect.

Following each training session, Obsidian hosts a panel or interviews covering select topics to help participants share, learn, connect and discuss a variety of themes related to men’s mental health.
