just give it a little tappy, tap tap taparoo

I have been a Brazilian jiu jitsu blue belt for about 3 weeks now. In that time I have not tapped another blue belt at all. Not one.

Well tonight at open mat at Fabio's that changed. Twice. A huge weight off my shoulders. I was soo worried I'd only be defensive and never be able to actually 'tap' anyone.

Both of them were within about 15-20lbs of me, one a 1 stripe blue and another blue promoted around the same time I was.

I was able to get to the back on both of them, eventually, and used the 'bow and arrow' choke on both as well. A huge boost to my confidence and game.

Awesome!
