Alliance Savannah/ Richmond Hill Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

Coffee and rolls

Right after making weight, I asked Master Fabio if it was safe to get a little something. I was so happy when Fabio said, “you can have a sip of water now.”😅

It takes genuine passion, consistency, knowledge and discipline overtime to develop fluency in the art of BJJ. And skills ebb and flow. So, however tough you may be, toughness is only one important ingredient. You need it. Yes. But if you have it, now what? What systemic plan do you have in place to get better? What is your maintenance schedule for maintaining and sharpening the skills you already have? Are you just getting random kimuras off the internet that were looked up at 4pm that day for inspiration to overcome the drudgery of yet another class or are you engaged with a proven curriculum with obvious excellent results? And what about that time you competed? Even if it was a just a local tournament, what kind of training camp did you get? Was your training camp just basically coming to class? Every day, porrada? Yes! But to what end? What ensures all that gas isn't just going to waste driving in circles? As the old saying goes, “failure to plan is a plan to fail.”
We live in an age where all the information is out there. But you still can’t learn to ride a bicycle watching Ticktok, let alone Jiu-Jitsu. Like it or not, you need competent in person help. And to find it, you have to know what it looks like. And that is why who you know and where you learned what you know from is important. That knowledge has a track record, a history with results that can be examined. That is, what ecosystem you are in matters. In short, your lineage. Here’s mine.

So good to be back to life. In the hospital, I realized once again one of life’s great truths. However, strong and vital most of the time, all things are impermanent. So whatever you plan to do now is the time. Don’t wait live your life today.And hang loose 🤙🏻 OSS

So good to be out of the hospital and back to life. May you all be well. 🙏
