Today marks my 9th year anniversary as a Black Belt, and I’m incredibly grateful to celebrate this milestone with Professor Professor James Uloth who received his Black Belt on the very same day.
I’m especially thankful for the guidance, support, and wisdom that Professor Alberto Crane has shared with me throughout this journey. There have been so many lessons, challenges, and moments of growth along the way, and I’m grateful for every one of them.
Most of all, I’m grateful to be part of such an amazing community. The people, the friendships, the support, and the shared love for Jiu-Jitsu mean more to me than I can put into words.
Here’s to 9 years, and to many more years of learning, growing, teaching, and giving back. 🥋❤️
Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey with me.
