At last it begins....

After years of wanting to start one, Years of reading other peoples and years of being behind the rest of the techno world I have finally decided to start and hopefully continue to update my very own blog. As my blog title indicates I am not too unlike an alcoholic or drug addict and can only live a happy and everyday life with my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, Submission grappling or Muay Thai training. I like many other people have been training in Martial arts for the large portion of my life and took the same route as probably 90% of martial artists with a few Karate lessons at the local YMCA then proceded to plough my way through many different Martial Art styles with a feeling of incompleteness or lack of faith and trust in what I was practising, Until I discovered Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ)!. It was 3 years and 1 month ago that my Martial Arts path would change forever and take me on a journey that has truley changed the person I have become and open my eyes to a such a powerful vision that I can never return to my roots.... Sounds crazy I know and the majority of people will never truley understand what a loyal follower of BJJ will be talking about or find it impossible to understand why getting so excited about spending 3-4 days a week rolling around on the floor with another man and the resident female is all about but I tell you this, There is no better feeling than applying a technique on a resisting partner and feeling the sweaty palm of their hand tapping on the closest part of your body..!!
