Blue Belt!!!
In May of 2022 Cam Hanes put out a book called Endure, the foreword is a powerful message written by Joe Rogan 9:18 long. I started it on my way to work one morning and after listening to it once I played it 4 more times, it felt as if someone reached down my throat, grabbed my guts, twisted them into a tight fist while looking at me in the eyes saying “you’re being a bitch, you know you got more within, when will you do something about it”.
I had been thinking about starting BJJ for a while at this point and MBJJ had been already recommended to me so I decided to reach out and coach Scott called back the same day, he was respectful, honest and non pressuring with a very laid back approach and invited me to come in for a trial, out of respect I felt I owed to him to show up after he took the time to call and answer all my questions. Today I received my 1st merit based promotion belt!, which comes sooner than I expected but if coaches Scott and Paul think I’m ready for blue then I’m beyond thrilled to start the next chapter of this endless journey, there’s something truly beautiful about attaining something you can only pay with sweat, discipline and consistency so I’ll bare this belt with honor.
Thank you all for getting me this far and congrats to all my gym mates that also got promoted
