I spoke to Coach Shannon this morning during my workout, and he told me to come to the noon BJJ class this Thursday.  So there you have it.  My Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey begins.

I haven’t done any grappling martial arts since my college days in the Southwestern College Judo club.  I’m really excited and a little nervous about learning this art, but hey, I’ve gotta make the most of the opportunities that I have, right?

What’s my motivation for doing all of this?  For me, I simply want to learn as much as I can.  The world of Martial Arts has always fascinated me, even from the days of my youth.  And it’s fun.
