So for those who don’t know, for the past year I’ve been training at a dojo on the coast whenever I’m out at my studio there. I train in both combat hapkido and Brazilian jiu-jitsu; I have my orange belt in the former, and as of tonight three stripes on my white belt in the latter. Between the two forms, I have an increasingly diverse set of skills for self defense both standing and from the ground.
To be honest, it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Not only am I in the best condition of my life at 38 years old (and I used to be a competitive runner twenty years ago!) but I have a lot more confidence and focus, and a new social circle, too!
