Hey all. I'm happy to have stumbled upon this forum this morning.

I'm a beginner and current student of BJJ. I'm an "experienced" beginner in a combo of Shuri-ryu and Matsumura Seito Shorin-ryu (10+ years). I'm a few years out of practice due a few cross-country moves and a lack of legitimate dojos within driving distance.

I'm a graduate student whose SO and colleagues get sick of hearing me talk about martial arts, so hopefully this will be a more receptive outlet.

Nice to meet you all!

Welcome aboard. I too know what it’s like to have people not want to hear about MA. Fortunately there’s this forum. Lots of great people here.

Welcome to the forum! With that combination, I'm curious if you're from Central Illinois

Southern Illinois, actually! Now I'm wondering if we might know a few of the same people.
