This blog is my perspective on Gracie Jiujitsu. I have practiced Gracie Jiujitsu for nearly five years. My ride on the Gracie Jiujitsu wave has been a bumpy one. I want to share my growth through Gracie Jiujitsu with you, my family and friends. I guess this will be an opportunity for me to allow you into a part of my world, which has been closed for those five long years. Come on in and enjoy!!

Greatest Jiujitsu Team...
When I first saw Nick Diaz fight, I was amazed by the fashion he dispatched Robbie Lawler. He was getting tagged, but threw a bomb and knocked Lawler out. Then I started seeing a cockiness from Diaz, which left a nasty taste in my mouth. I jumped the "Hate Diaz" Bandwagon like so many others had. As the years past and Diaz left the UFC, I didn't think about him too much until I saw his younger brother, Nate Diaz on The Ultimate Fighter (TUF). Nate was/is very cocky as well, which made me put him in the same barrel, I put his brother in. Then something happened!Something, I didn't expect. I heard their story.
When I learned about the brothers and where they come from, I began changing my opinion of them. Soon, I began looking at their team under Ceasar Gracie. This team maybe the tightest and most forged team in mixed martial arts.
A team is a group of individuals, which motivate and push one another to improve and better themselves in hopes to grow the team. The team sees individual improvement as the goal. The individual sees team grow and recognition as the goal. The team then becomes family.
