It was such an honour to be teaching alongside Hannette Staack at this awesome event.
Lately I have been teaching a seminar every week or so. It is so amazing to be able to travel to new places, see new things, meet new people all because of the sport I love. The other week I was honoured to be teaching a seminar in Texas for the Women's Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Federation alongside multiple time World Champ Hannette Staack. The WBJJF is dedicated to promoting women in the sport with camps, tournaments and seminars geared to both women and girls. Thank you Kristine Felts for starting this organisation and making a difference to so many. Your efforts are hugely appreciated. I met amazing women who were seasoned athletes, or brand new beginners or mothers (one was a mother of 5 kids!) Everyone of these ladies was taking the time out for themselves to pursue what they love and that is what it is all about.
Last week I was added to the BJJ Heroes list which is a database of BJJ fighters from all around the world. I am pretty sure I am the only Australian to be part of this encyclopaedia for Jiu Jitsu athletes so it is a real honour. Thank you bJJ Heroes!
