New Port Richey location

I am so fired up! A Gracie location 5 minutes from my house. The all New Gracie Tampa - New Port Richey location with none other than Ferret teaching. I heard Matt Arroyo will be making guest teaching appearances on Wednesday nights. It is wonderful to have world class jiu-jitsu right down the street!

Tonight's class was working on basic guard passes. We rolled through 3 of them our basic pass, the knee through (kick-stand) pass and the lift them (I don't know what else to call it) and put them on their neck pass.

After an hour of reps, I rolled with Ferret for about 30 minutes. I think he tapped me 5 or 6 times. It was nice to roll again and I could tell Ferret has picked up some new moves. I did manage to catch Ferret right off the bat with the arm drag, but that was the highlight of the evening for me. I took side mount and was able to hold it, but couldn't mount any offensive attacks. Not too bad for as little jiu-jits as I have had this year.
