Grace has inspired me to want to teach again. I’ve had a lot of people asking about where I’ll be instructing. I’ve decided to do privates all summer at my place. Hit me up 🤙🏽. #jiujitsu #judo #bjj #judoforbjj #judoforjiujitsu #kickboxing #striking #mma #mixedmartialarts #privates #kickboxing #oneonone #groupclass #internaljiujitsu #madtravelingsamurai #senseidaddy (at New York, New York)

Another perfect day with my best buddy. Of all the things I’ve done in my life, or will ever do, nothing wll ever compare to this. When I look into her eyes I see all that is possible. At three years old, she counsels me. Tells me not to rush. Reminds me we’ll get there eventually and always says everything will be ok. I don’t mean figuratively. She actually says these things to to me. Grace is the single most special human being I’ve ever met. She inspires me, and I’m honored and blessed to be her dad. #jiujitsugirl #judogirl #mmagirl #senseidaddy #internaljiujitsu (at Long Island City)

My little girl will not need to be saved. She will not be pushed aside or made to feel less than. She will not depend on the words of others to prop her up. She will always know she is a leader who gives freely but sets boundaries. Never taken advantage of, but always willing to do what’s right. Her power will come from being who she is, and her light will touch everyone she comes across. It is not a tough exterior, but an unshakable foundation that will propel her to greatness. #myhero #jiujitsugirl #senseidaddy #internaljiujitsu

We need not be loved by all. There are but a precious few who will brighten the darkest days and pick you up when you are at your lowest. These are the ones you never have to hold back with. The ones with which you can laugh and cry without fear of judgement. Trying to please everyone is like filling your toolbox with endless techniques that don’t work. You will master none and be left confused when the fruits of your labor die on the vine. #internaljiujitsu #martialartist #beselective #knowyourself #mind #body #jiujitsu #blackbelt #senseidaddy
