BJJ Blue Belt Earned

I would like to announce something very, very exciting. Last night, I got my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Blue Belt.

I put in a good eleven months to get this belt and as my instructor said last night, I have only missed one class…and that was because of a BJJ tournament. I have also been going in for privates most weeks.

Even though I only have just under a year’s worth of training, I do feel strong about what I can accomplish on the mat. I usually find a way out of some hairy situations and quite often end up turning things into a submission. Plus, I have the rest of my life to continue training, so it’s only going to get better from here.

I love this stuff. I really do.
