Howevear Levon Barsegyants's example and his families which moved from Latvia to Great Britain few years ago, proves that moving to the new country and a new way of life can do only good. 

The father Levona, Vladimir, itself was engaged in Greco-Roman wrestling and when, in Latvia, there was a question earlier, to what sports section to send the son, the choice was made in favor of free-style wrestling.  However after a while Vladimir found work in Great Britain, and was decided that all family will go on the PERMANENT RESIDENCE to the new country.  Near London where moved to live in the small city Levon Barsegyants and his parents, the section on free-style wrestling didn't appear:  the popular sport on the former Soviet Union didn't become same popular in the small British town.  It was necessary to look for to Vladimir for the son a new sport, and the choice because of the sizes of the city was quite limited:  karate, boxing and Brazilian ju-jitsu.  In a family decided that to the child who was engaged in free-style wrestling, once you continue to be engaged in single combat, and Levon sent to section of the Brazilian ju-jitsu. 

After a while it appeared that the Brazilian ju-jitsu for Levon Barsegyants can don't become simple hobby or sports section where he goes after school, and the real career.  In four years of occupations by the Brazilian ju-jitsu Levon managed to become the champion of Britain and the champion of England in the age category, and in the open championship to Europe organized by North American Grappling Association (NAGA), Levonstal became the second.  The father Levona notes that all these competitions, of course, run into money and the family seriously reflects over search of sponsors who will be able to pay trips on any of tournaments in exchange for advertizing, after all ju-jitsu in Great Britain becomes more and more popular sport. 

Last week to Levon Barsegyantsu 14 years were executed, and he already is the owner of a green belt on the Brazilian ju-jitsu – the best of possible achievements for children aged till 16 years.  And let for Levona it is necessary to wait for new belts and degrees at least two more years, he all the same plans to be engaged further in the Brazilian ju-jitsu to win in all possible championships not only the nursery, but also adult category, and after end of sports career to become the professional coach.
