i nwant to compete in brazil and feel the jiu jitsu there and see how mine stacks up. I want to be as close to the bloodline and my lineage as I can be. The academy I go to should be Saulo Ribeiro / Gracie Humaita. It should be Gracie Tijuca where my Professor is from.

for some reason i seem to recall having a real desire to go to Brazil that runs much older than the time I saw Bikini Roller Boxing. It has been a place I have wanted to see since a kid but in only a small place in my imagination.
