In material released on the occasion of the event, the embassy reported that Jordan is one of the countries where Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is practiced, as it is in many other nations around the world and in the Middle East. In Jordan, one of its leading representatives is Brazilian Jordanian Palestinian sensei Samy Al-Jamal, from the school that partnered in the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
