how is everyone doing?

“We Show Up” Success isn’t a destination—it’s a journey. And just choosing to take that first step means you’re already winning. Stepping onto the mat, stepping into this lifestyle, stepping into the fire—it takes guts. That alone is something to be proud of. This is the start of something new. A new path. A new mindset. New challenges, goals, frustrations, and sacrifices. A new rhythm of life to navigate while still juggling everything else we’re committed to. And let’s be honest—none of it is easy. I’m still new to this sport, this lifestyle, this grind. And here’s what I’ve learned: it’s OK to mess up. It’s OK to feel sore, beat up, and exhausted. It’s OK if you have to rearrange your life and ruffle a few feathers to chase this. What’s not OK? Giving up. Staying stagnant. Refusing to grow. Every drop of sweat, every rolled ankle, every frustrating roll—it’s all part of becoming better. Embrace the chaos. Celebrate the small wins. Respect the grind. No matter how long you’ve been training, from a white belt to a black belt, we should all count ourselves lucky. We get to train. We get to compete. We get to stay sharp, stay hungry, and stay alive in this journey. Take a second. Think about the pressure you put on your body, your mind, your spirit. And still—you show up. Somehow, some way, you lace up, tape up, and get on the mat. And that? That’s powerful. That’s purpose. That’s jiu-jitsu. It’s a new day. Let’s go.

Who has seen the Caio Terra video where he puts his partner to sleep when said that the technique does not work? Hahaha hilarious
