MMA and me; day 289 and 290

Quick word on last weeks classes before I head off to teach bjj. We've been working a lot on the inverted guard, and the X guard. When I first got into this sport, I thought they were a bit gimmicky, and way too situational. Now, with a bit of experience under my belt, I can now see them for what they are; progress. Just like in any sport, or in fact, life in general, these aspects of bjj are signs of growth, and some peoples brilliant innovations into an already beautiful martial art.I love that there are outside the box thinkers that see where advantages are to be taken, and are not afraid to leap at the opportunity to take a chance. Tomorrow I will go into more detail on these concepts, but I just wanted to briefly talk about how thankful I am to be able to work with great coaches and students, I am having a ball!!
