Tom Hardy shared his heartfelt reasons behind competing in Brazilian jiu-jitsu after making a surprise appearance and winning a title at a recent tournament in England
Hardy, a blue belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, won all three of his matches to take home the title in his weight class under the name Edward Hardy, which is his legal name, according to The Guardian.
“Simple training, for me has been fundamentally key to further develop a deeper sense of inner resilience, calm and well being,” Hardy wrote on Instagram. “I can’t stress the importance it has had and the impact on my life and my fellow team mates." "Their work has changed and saved lives around the world by not only providing an effective, positive means for navigating and managing the challenging psychological aspects of military and first responder careers, but also has allowed many to find a renewed sense of purpose, identity, and community that's often lost when transitioning to civilian life," Hardy wrote.
