Muay Thai this Thursday at 8pm with Rory Jordan.
When he's not fighting forest fires, Rory will be teaching Muay Thai Thursdays at 8pm.
Because a lot of stuff is on fire right now, it's not going to be every Thursday...



Side note; AI poster, yeah I know. It didn't steal an artists job, this saved me about an hour on Microsoft Paint (unpaid work, woe is me). It looks 10x as good as anything I could have done, and yet has that weird, funny, quirky, "computers not quite understanding humans" vibe to it, which I find quite amusing.

Attack your weaknesses: Jiu Jitsu has a way of very clearly showing you where your current weakness lie, particularly when you spar with people better than yourself. Take advantage of this. Identify what needs work and create a plan to address it. It doesn’t take much - identify the scenarios, build a conceptual understanding of the most important governing principles in that scenario, a short list of the most important mechanical details that improve performance and begin sparring in that scenario. The initial learning rate is typically very high. Try to work with someone whose level allows you to achieve success with struggle. Build from there. It doesn’t take long to transform weaknesses into strengths.
