Yesterday, after I arrived back in the States from Trondheim, Norway, I drove up to my BJJ instructor's school in Costa Mesa, California and had a private lesson with him. After the instructional and testing portions of my lesson, Professor Moreira and I rolled. Well, I don't know how to say this except to say it like it's in my mind: Professor Moreira kindly demonstrated why he is a seventh degree black belt and I am soon to be third degree black belt. Here's a brief recap of what happened:
First, Professor Moreira asked me to pass his guard. Not only did I NOT pass his guard, but I never even came close! AND, not only did I not come close, but he kept sweeping me (over and over and over again). No matter how many times I dug my shoulders into his thighs or dropped my hips down on his knees, I kept getting swept left and right. Now, that may not sound like much to some of you, but to those who know my game and have felt the pressure I exert while passing the guard.......well, you can only imagine my utter disbelief (coupled with a Cheshire cat grin) each time I flew through the air ! )
Next, Professor Moreira told me to lay on my back and he was going to try and pass my guard. I remember thinking to myself, "Aw yeah baby! Now you're gonna feel the power of the Boa." Pfffff, that lasted all of three seconds. What happened next was unreal: He passed my guard like I was a paraplegic! He did it once, twice, three times and more. I remember thinking, "THAT'S NOT RIGHT!" Professor Moreira and I were smiling and chuckling the whole time!
Next, Professor Moreira told me what I needed to work on and how I should go about training. Then, we went through the same two drills again. I tried and tried to pass his guard and I tried to stop him from passing my guard. I got a little closer to passing this time, but not by much. And of course, Professor Moreira passed my guard, AT WILL, with fluidity and finesse.
At the end of my lesson, Professor Moreira and I talked about my game and what needed to be improved. He congratulated me on my promotion, we set up another date for a private and then we parted ways.
On my drive back to San Diego, so many thought kept going through my mind. The main thought that kept repeating itself over and over in my mind was this: "Even though I got my butt handed to me today, I HAD SO MUCH FUN!!! Man, I haven't been handled like that in years! It feels great to feel like a kid again!"
Professor Moreira will be having a promotion ceremony this Sunday, November 14, 2004, at 3:00 p.m., at the following location:
South Coast Martial Arts-Boxing 3165 Harbor Blvd., Ste E Costa Mesa, CA 92626 (714) 545-5759
It would great if some of you could attend the promotion ceremony. Professor Moreira will be awarding me with my third degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. He will also be promoting several other students during this time. Afterward, there will be a big Brazilian BBQ. I hope many of you can make it.
Good training to all of you,
Roy Harris

Randori, nie pisz o czymś o czym od kogoś słyszałeś bo tamta osoba coś tam słyszała. Brzydko tak.
Pozdrawiam

Nie chcę wywoływać tu jakiejś wojny,ale słyszałem,że Roy Harris idzie tylko w kasę i tak naprawdę nic innego go nie interesuje
Ja wiem ? Moze ktos czuje sie oszukany. Wydaje mi sie jednak ze takiego zdania nie maja o nim Polacy :wink:
