It's surreal to say the least.
I must thank, first and foremost, Master Eddie Bravo for allowing me to continue my training and studying under him for the last 3 years.
It's been a pleasure getting humbled by, brainstorming techniques with, and repping 10p for a living legend like Eddie.
Jiu Jitsu Unleashed then, now, and beyond. It never ends.

I want to thank Rafa and Gui Mendes for showing me a different side of jiu jitsu- not just the gi game of things, but a different look at the nogi game as well.
Huge congrats.
It is funny because I am relatively new to 10th Planet - but I was watching Mendes videos a month or so ago and I was like... 'that guy looks so much like the guy in Eddie's class!!!' And then I'd watch an MTS and think 'man, they really do look alike!' haha.
