Thanks guys

Much can change in such a short amount of time...

As a well-versed grappler and submission specialist (I've been a practitioner of Judo , Traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, and Danzan-Ryu Jiu-Jitsu since the age of 3), I've always found one of my dreams to come train at a top-notch training facility. As I live in Las Vegas, my dream is obviously more attainable than most, but even I was amazed at my good fortune that I've experienced in the last month, maybe the last month and a half. I was introduced, completely by chance, to another Eric Center, who also lives in Las Vegas, and who also fights. Seeing as how he is a Muay Thai Fighter, and I am a ground specialist, I invited him to come to a local community center to teach him some basic judo. As luck would have it, the community center ended up being booked for a carnival the next day, so me and my new friend were stuck in a bind. That bind was soon broken when Eric suggested to me that I come down and check out Xtreme Couture. As I expressed earlier in this article, this has always been a dream of mine, so naturally I was more than happy to oblige. From that first day, Ive taught, been taught, been punched in the face and returned the favor, been hobbled by leg and body kicks, and to be perfectly frank, its been one of the best experiences of my life.

Me and Eric became fast friends, and as i've been helping him prepare for his 2nd Amateur fight on the 27th, I've learned much about myself as well, both in terms of my abilities to teach, be taught, and learn to let it all flow naturally. Ive blogged on and off for the past couple of months, only letting my proverbial hands go when I had an urge to wax poetic about something interesting to me going on in the MMA world, but as of right now, I hope to make this more than just a "Part-time Gig"

As Always,
