Good luck!

Just know that when you first begin, you'll be beaten regularly, and so might feel helpless and get frustrated. Just keep at it and in a few months you'll hold your own and start laying out the same treatment to other newbies!

Just remember, when it hurts, don't struggle, just tap! Losing is that easy!

Also, don't become obsessed with learning a library of submissions, as they won't work for you very well at first, not until you've developed solid positional skills and escapes. Control is what matters, and once you've got it, subs will start to really work for you.
