Faixa Azul


TODAY I WAS AWARDED MY BLUE BELT IN BRAZILIAN JIU JITSU FROM FABIO SANTOS!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM TOTALLY HUMBLED BY IT AND THE WEIGHT OF IT IS HEAVY ON MY SHOULDERS (OR HIPS).
I STARTED AT THE ACADAMEY MAY 10 OF THIS YEAR AND GOT MY BELT TODAY, AUGUST 27, 2008.
TRAINING 3 DAYS A WEEK AT LEAST, EVERY WEEK FOR FOUR MONTHS. WOW. (but I really had been training off and on with friends for years. this is my first real formal bjj instruction)
THOSE WEREN'T TEARS, MY EYES WERE JUST SWEATING.
my jiu jitsu lineage is: > Rickson Gracie > Fabio Santos > Me
