Congrats Jason. It was obvious on the day how much it meant to you and now reading a bit of your story I wish I had taken the time to say congrats to you personally on the day.

And also big congrats to Nat too.

It was a great day meeting everyone. I had a mate come along who hadn't done any 10th Planet stuff or been involved in this Forum at all and he commented on the way home how awesome everyone was at the seminar. BJJ is full of great people but the percentage of awesome people involved in 10th Planet seems to be off the charts.

Dude it's not the Rubber guard or Lockdown that makes 10th Planet special.
It's the people man.

Those of us who do jits develop such a head strong way of forging through this life, after all how big a problem is some unpaid bills or some shit someone said about you when your idea of fun involves someone on your back trying to choke the ever loving shit out of you, ha ha!.

Add to that the collective open mindedness that has trickled down from Eddie Bravo' s philosophy on the system and life, and us 10th Planet peeps are just a very welcoming group of ninjas.

I have regular communication with Black and Brown belt 10th Planet instructors I have never met personally, and they always make time to help me out just because that's really how 10 do.
10th Planet is a family and one I'm very very proud to be apart of.

Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the seminar, hope to see you at Franks when I'm back next month
