My Jiujitsu Diary
I started learning Brazilian Jiujitsu at NorthBay Jiujitsu back in April 2023; since then, I’ve had four stripes on my white belt. I train 3-4 times a week, and sometimes forget most techniques! To remember, I’ve created a “diary” to review all the techniques and drill them into my muscle/brain memory. This blog is just my note, and I’m not responsible for its accuracy; please enjoy! :)
