Gracie Jiu Jitsu Training

Today’s update is a personal one. I have been a lover of martial arts my entire life, about one year and a half ago I finally decided to invest in my passion and take lessons. Since, I have traveled the world and trained in many amazing gyms.

The pictures below are from a visit to Florida’s Start Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Academy. I was there not to long ago and went with my friend Mike, he trains at the gym and introduced me to everyone around. It was the most welcoming group of people and such a positive learning environment. I love Jiujitsu I love the community and I love being able to walk into a gym anywhere in the world and sharpen my iron.

I got a great workout both Saturday and Sunday, we hit the healthy food spot and the beach right after. Im super excited to return and learn some more.

Happy me, excited to sharpen my iron
