This past weekend from the Caio Terra Academy Reed Kotler, Ygor Rodrigues, Ryan Walsh, Benji Silva, Rudson Mateus, Kristina Barlaan, Marco Zulauf, Vitor Paschoal, Flavio Meier, Yuri Simoes and myself traveled south to compete in the 2015 Pan Jiu Jitsu Championships. After four exhausting days we took home home 5 silver medals, and 3 gold medals.
More important then any victory or medal we earned was the time we spent together. In the end it’s never the medals or championships we remember but the friends we meet along the way. I am proud of our team, of everyone who competed and everyone back in San Jose who makes this all possible.
Next up worlds!
