  1. Ah yes, the ancient art of beer bottle grappling! What belt level have you achieved? ;)

    I'm lovin' it Carrie, but it is a whole new level of difficulty from karate training. I've had to sit out the past week, because of a cold. I would have probably continued training if it were karate, but with the close level of contact in BJJ, you can't really do that to your team mates. How's the job search going?

    "Thanks Bob, you grapple?"

    The only grappling I do anymore is with a beer bottle!

    How's the grappling coming along?
  4. Congratulations on your point status. That's awesome. I'm finding it may take me a bit to adjust to 4-5 nights of grappling per week. Last night was my first no-gi class and I am pretty sore already. Although, I was commended for making it all the way through the class and not puking during warm-ups. :) Now, we'll see if I can make it through the whole week.

    I'm sorry to see you go, but I'm glad that you're continuing with the martial arts. I know you really like grappling. I'm moving on to a lot of boxing myself, although I'm still doing it through Ben. I think that his studio does more fighting than the other UKS studios. So far, with the rankings I got in last Saturday's tournament, I'm in the lead for competitor of the year and I think he teaches us to fight more. Let me know how everything goes at the new dojo :bbg:

    Good move on the change to grappling!!

    Bravo!
  8. I'm not with UKS anymore. :( While I seriously enjoyed my time with United, I recently found my enthusiasm for karate waning while my interest in grappling and boxing was increasing. My renewal was up with a big fat down payment check due for the privilege of committing to another year of higher payments. So, I decided to leave UKS and sign up with a local Gracie Barra academy. It was a difficult decision, but I am very excited about the path ahead.

    Month and a half until Ben's tournament. Got it marked on your calendar?
  10. I'm glad you liked it. I decorated (well, photoshopped) it myself. ;)
