Great session with one of our blue belts this week.

Understanding that every avenue ends in a fork. Forcing down that path when we sometimes meet the immovable object can only lead us into danger.

Stopping, keeping control, and reaccessing can show us a different path with much less resistance, regaining or keeping our tempo in the fight, and sometimes life.

Another great nod to how life on the mats can benefit our lives in the real world.
