Karlinhos,

I picked up on Hura's post before Hawk's, but Hura and her husband live a little too close to where I live. I must, therefore, treat them accordingly.

Talking

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
Hey Zhoo,
That's pretty good. I was, however, strictly speaking
GJJ/BJJ. However, I think the same can work for me in other ways. I've been using visualization quite a bit and have improved my GJJ/BJJ because of it. You know, you visualize yourself winning, then go out and do it. Your post has made me want to visualize sleeping with Catherine Zeta-Jones, then the next time I'm in Hollywood.......Hey, who knows!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
Hawk
PS-Karl, How are you? Drop me an E-mail sometime.
Hawk

I THOUGHT that's what she was talking about, but I didn't want to say anything and face the "Wrath of Rey"; or Hura for that matter.

How fast someone else progresses often means very little about your progression. If all you worry about is belt ranks, then BJJ probably isn't the ideal "hobby."

Simply really. People want to know they are making progress. With the long times between promotions, it helps to have an idea of where you are in relation to averages. Obviously, every person is going to be different, but that doesn't make it a stupid question.

In my particular case, I can assure you that I'm looking for the skill level associated with the rank. When I achieve that skill level, I hope the rank follows shortly. I expect that most people inquiring feel the same way.

KyleS:

Since I am a total moron and can't find the directions I wrote down to your school, could you post them here or E-mail them to me at hrao14@hotmail.com?

I remember 104W, and that's it.

Thanks. I intend to come tomorrow.
