I Have Become Everything That I Despised

Well, I am declaring Bullshido on myself!

After spending the last two years doing a CMA and Krav (which is actually quite good from a self-defense aspect) I have jumped on that most popular of band wagons, MMA.

While I did get a sense of fullfillment over the last two years (I learned a thing or two) my primal urge to beatdown on another human being till he tapped out or simple could not fight back was not being satisfied.

So it is with heavy heart (but much excitement) that I must embark on this new endeavor called Vale Tudo. I will be starting at Gracie Barra BJJ here in Perth next week. They offer Vale Tudo which really was the clincher for me as I would like to think that my 8 years of Muay Thai was not all in vain.

I now own a blue gi and a white belt.

More to follow.

Feels good to be bad doesn't it?

I feel dirty, and no matter how hard I scrub it won't come off.
But I like it!

Welcome to the dark side.

Nothing wrong with that. I took kempo for awhile and some kung fu and played with Judo then Ju Jitsu. I dont consider any of them a waste. It is very fufilling to be able to see your skills work and knowing from day one what your doing and how it relates to real life. I dont want to find the hidden meaning myself.
