The first inductees to the program are Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu World Champion, SEA Games Gold Medalist, and Asian Games Silver Medalist Constance Lien, SEA Games Gold Medalist Noah Lim, and SEA Games Bronze Medalist Paul Lim. The three talented martial artists are some of Singapore’s brightest young athletes, having represented Singapore at several international competitions.
“I am very blessed to be given this opportunity and support. An athlete’s support system is so important, and this is just another great example of it. With this program, it serves as an extra motivation to keep working hard and, most importantly, raise Singapore’s flag high. I can’t wait for what’s to come,” said Constance.
The dynamic Lim brother duo also spoke enthusiastically about the program. Paul shared, “It’s a great platform with a strong avenue of support for aspiring athletes in Singapore to chase their dreams. I have a new-found belief to chase my goals of becoming a professional athlete in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I am honored and grateful to Chatri Sityodtong and the World Champion Instructors at Evolve MMA for the opportunity.”
Paul Lim captured a bronze medal for Singapore at the 2019 SEA Games.
Noah added, “I am very honored to be able to represent Evolve MMA and am grateful for the support from Chatri Sityodtong and the professors to help us chase our dreams in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It’s a great step forward to help Singaporean athletes. I’m really happy that this will allow the sporting scene to evolve as well.”
