For me, it's do or die time for me to get my black belt in GJJ. Relson will shortly be ranked as a red belt, and will retire back to Brazil in all likelihood, so I must get it before then. I will then have a very desirable menkyo-kaiden lineage: Kano Jigoro > Tomita Tsunejirō > Maeda Mitsuyo > Helio Gracie > Relson Gracie > Me.
DONE
This deserves its own thread.
Congratulations on a huge goal!
