Take the trip ✈️
Pack the gi 🥋
Find the mat 🤼‍♀️

Listen to the stories. Collect the moments.
Train with people who make you think, grow, and question yourself a little. ✨

Book what you think is a massage and somehow end up getting wet cupping instead. 💁🏽‍♀️

Jiu-jitsu has a funny way of giving you exactly what you need.

And every once in a while, one of the people you meet happens to be Al Bundy. 🥋✨

The first ever Jiu-Jitsu Lifestyle Summit exclusively for black belts.
20 of us.
Five days together at Oak Canyon Ranch.
And I was one of only three women in the group.

Ryron Gracie brought together a pretty incredible group, and the whole week was really about connecting, sharing, training, and spending time together outside of the usual gym setting.

Gorgeous weather, morning hikes and breathwork, incredible meals from an amazing team of chefs, a different special guest each day, ice baths, saunas, pool time, jacuzzis, fire pits, conversations, laughs, and of course, a whole lot of jiu-jitsu.

Nothing was mandatory, which somehow made everyone want to do everything.

And the yurt… definitely the star of the show. 😂

Five days that were completely full, somehow flew by, and left me with a lot more than just good jiu-jitsu. 🥋

No excuses. No victim mentality. No “I’m sorry, but…”

Just straight-up accountability.

I’ll admit, my first reaction was, “good, this hater got humbled.” But hearing him own it like this reminded me to have a little more patience and humanity too.

And props to Bernardo and Brandon for showing up with complete class and representing the culture that made me fall in love with being a Gracie University Certified Training Center in the first place. 🥋

Respect. 🤝

Part 2. 🥋🌊

No rule set. No time limit. Just beautiful fundamentals and surfing the wave.

Confidence is quiet. Cockiness is loud.

Let the Jiu-Jitsu speak for itself.

Part 1 👀

A brown belt school owner calls out Gracie University and Certified Training Centers because apparently we “can’t train.” 😂

Funny how the ones who bark the loudest always seem the most confident… until it’s time to test it.

As a Certified Training Center owner, I LOVE to see it. 😏

What I think is so cool about Ryron Gracie is how intentionally he pours into the Gracie University Certified Training Center network. He visits schools, jumps on the mat, and creates content with instructors because he understands how much that support helps our schools grow.

This photo also reminds me of two life altering decisions I made in 2020: making Crosley Gracie Jiu-Jitsu academy my official training home and making Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Alameda a Gracie University Certified Training Center. I trusted myself, and I’m incredibly proud of where those choices have taken me.

Proud of who I chose to align myself with. Proud of my training home. Proud to be a Gracie University CTC. 🥋✨

Surprise Thursday night drop in from Ryron Gracie, right here in Alameda! 🥋🔥

We were all practicing in our small group when we suddenly heard, “Hey, guys!” We looked up and stared at this tall, tan stranger for a solid 10 seconds before it finally registered… It was Ryron!

It was especially exciting for the teens who stayed late to work on their Combatives test. Ryron jumped right in, helped them with their techniques, and shared some invaluable details.

For Wilder and Addison, who started training with me when they were just five years old and have now been by my side on the mats for nearly 11 years, this moment felt especially meaningful. After all these years together, getting to share an experience like this with them was incredibly special.

Another amazing Instructor Certification Program at Gracie University. 🥋

Before becoming a Gracie University Certified Training Center, I was running a jiu-jitsu gym with no structured curriculum, no clear path for students, and I was barely making ends meet.

I still remember my dad giving me the reality check I needed: “You need to make something happen because right now, this is just a hobby.”
Thank God for gracieuniversityhq

Becoming a Certified Training Center completely changed the direction of our academy. We chose this path because our mission is simple: to provide the most effective self-defense on the planet to you, your children, and your families.

Gracie Combatives gives beginners the fastest path to street readiness through 36 essential self-defense techniques, and once students complete that program, we have advanced training ready for them to continue their journey.

Next up on my goal list: earning my Pink Belt so we can bring Women Empowered to Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Alameda and provide a safe, empowering self-defense program for the incredible women in our community. 💗

Thank you to Rener, Ryron, the entire Gracie University team, and all of the Certified Training Centers that continue to inspire me.

I’ll say it again: becoming a Gracie University Certified Training Center was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for our academy. Until next year! 🤍🖤🥋
