Diaper Seminar!

No, your eyes are not fooling you, you read that right. This evening at the University of Jiu-Jitsu, there was a diaper seminar! Some of you may not know, but Xande Ribeiro will be a father very soon (within the next 6 weeks). So, this evening there was a special class at UNIJJ, where all the participants brought a package of diapers for the father to be. In return the participants were treated to instruction from Saulo & Xande Ribeiro (head instructors at UNIJJ), as well as myself and Rani Yahya. We each took turns demonstrating a position, breaking down all the fine details, and at the end of the night we enjoyed some Acai, Pao de Queijo, refreshments, and socializing. There was about 45 participants, so needless to say, there was a pretty good sized stack of diapers. Xande is stocked up, for his daughter Victoria, now he just needs to learn how to use them. There was a great vibe and energy there tonight. It was nice to put the gi on and kind of have a chill environment on the mat, instead of all the hardcore no-gi training we have been doing.

If you are ever in the San Diego area, I would highly recommend stopping by the University of Jiu-Jitsu. Not only do you get world class instruction from Saulo & Xande Ribeiro on a regular basis, but there are plenty of other high level competitors who get on the mat to teach and train with the students there. All the students are very cool and down to earth, and they all have solid bjj. The school has really started to come into its own and that will be shown next weekend at the Nationals.
