Quick update...

Things have been crazy busy at the shop as of late, so I don't have a whole lot to report on. I have been working on a BJJ Gi review for my next post, but I really underestimated how many Kimono's I have owned in the past 4 ish years of Jiu-Jitsu. Also, I underestimated what a nerd I am when it comes to MMA gear. So look forward to a lengthy, detailed report on that front.

Meanwhile, at Absolute MMA, we have been making a few big changes around the gym. Rob has invested in a new cage, and so the ring has been sold, and is gone. The new cage is still not complete, but all that is left is the door, and it's finished. We installed a new mat cover, to match the grey cage mat. And man, it looks sharp.

I had the pleasure this weekend, of covering a few classes for Rob and Pedro, while they were in Arizona teaching a seminar. I can't tell you how much I enjoy teaching Jiu-Jitsu. I love talking shop, figuring out the weak links in our game, and helping my teammates get better, and learn new things to make our team stronger. Also teaching gives you a chance to test your knowledge of pure technique, anyone can BS their way through a class, but actually teaching sound technique, that your world class professors would sign off on, is another thing entirely. I hope to one day be able to become a well rounded teacher, so that I can help others learn, and improve their Jiu-Jitsu, as much as my instructors have for me.
