i received my black belt from eduardo rocha, a fourth degree black belt under royler gracie, on 12/11/11. with this new promotion my need to begin building a name and base for myself has increased. in the past i was really bad about keeping a blog. i aim to change that from here on out. i am currently injured and having surgery on the 22nd, but will begin showing training clips and training logs as soon as i can start my recovery from the surgery. as for now, i'm just getting reorganized.
