The transfer of knowledge and technique happens during AND after your training.

Paul and Khan breaking down their roll at the end of Thursday’s cypher.

Good vibe on the mats.

Lots of hoodies under the gis as temps are in the teens and low twenties for morning class now.

It can be hard to get out of bed when it’s dark and cold outside…but you do it, because what does the alternative offer you?

A sense of accomplishment, better health both of mind and body, being harder to kill…traded away for a few moments of comfort.

That’s not a good bargain.

Stop ripping yourself off.

It’s a great day to train Jiu-Jitsu.

“We are not going in circles, we are going upwards. The path is a spiral; we have already climbed many steps.”

- Hermann Hesse

The Great Work.

One longstep at a time.
