It has been an honor to work with my Ju Jitsu/Kenpo partners (pictured above), who I have worked with for years. From left to right – yours truly, John, Mike, Mark, Erica, Brian, Jaeda and Delaney. They are an amazing group of people!!!

As or more importantly, thank you to my Sensei, the great Terry Dow. Terry, his wife Christina, and the other Sensei’s have helped me so much in my journey.

I continue to have imposter syndrome, thinking of this level of attainment. There are so many  highly skilled practitioners in our dojo, the Training Station, it’s easy to feel like an imposter.  

Like many things in life, my journey has been a story of obtaining a goal/level of success by – keep showing up!

The first ten years of my Ju Jitsu/Kenpo journey have been amazing! My experience has been very helpful for mind and body. I look forward to continuing the journey!
