It has been 10+ years since I trained consistently with a Gi in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Feels great to train consistently with Professor Amir Yafawi, and I am happy to have achieved my goal of 2 new strips on my belt today. Thanks Amir for being a great coach! I am lucky to be training with a coach who I admire both on and off the mats. One of my old Sensei said that martial arts is not only in the Dojo, but also outside of it. I feel that Amir exemplifies that. He has a lot of admirable traits that I admire. Thank you Professor Tony Isaacs for being on hand to help out today. Congrats to all those that got their strips today, the young guns who got their new belts and to Oskar Gut for his BLUE, Carl Heinz for his PURPLE and Shyam Tanna for his BROWN. WOW!
