Tuesday, August 19, 2008

Last few months.............

I spent June and July wondering around Bahia, Brasil! I did no training at all.........but I did leran to dance forro!....lol......Being spoiled and lazy. I am planning a trip to Quito, Ecuador for September, if anyone knows of jiu jitsu schools there, let me know.

Thanks for all the purchases but even more thanks for all the great feedback on the book! I hope to have a updated version and video out in 09! You guys are the best.

Joe Rogan in Cbus Ohio. Warning. Strong language!

After going to the UFC in Cincinnati, I swore off Tap Out and Affliction shirts. I love the tap out guys, but its just the rebel in me, I cant be associated with that stereotype. Here is Joe Rogan performing the weekend of the UFC in Cbus, OH. This is exactly why I swore the brands off. Joe nails it on the head. And its pretty damn funny too!

Rolling With Sebastian in Buenos Aires!


Sebastian and I rolled for about an hour. The whole time I had a broken thumb. You can see his sweeps and chokes are real good. For two big guys (over 200 pds each) we got pretty good transitions. Even though I edited the video to make me look better........lol............you still see me tapping twice.

Here is a video from my trip to Buenos Aires, Argentina in Oct. 2007. I trained at Gracie Buenos Aires and had a blast. Sebastian speaks perfect English and is super cool, as well as kicked my arse!!!!!!!!.....lol.......I did break my thumb this night the first minute of grappling. I rolled for about another hour with it....lol. By the time I got to dinner that night my hand looked like a catchers mitt. I contemplated the hospital....but I didnt have time, I was on vacation.......lol. (I should of, 5 months later and it still hurts and dont work right). You'll notice me shake my hands a few times during the training and interview.

I'm Back!

Well, its been a while since I've been on here. I've been super busy. Running four money making machines, being a family man, and trying to find time to train has left little time to keep up to date here. But I think I'm getting a little better time management skill now.

First my apologies to Sebastian and the BA Gracie Team. I am having a lot of software problems and still have not got the video footage of their school up yet. I am working on it still brothers. Very soon.

Im in the D.C. airport right now, on my way back to Brazil for 8 days of training! Meeting Pro fighter Aaron Steele and going to show him around. I'm so excited. I appreciate all of you who have been buying the ebook even though its outdated a bit. I am going to do a bunch of updates on it over the next 8 days and ad some videos to youtube I hope to compliment it. Any of you who already bought it will get the updated version for free once completed (as you know).

Good training and come back for the updates.
