Great teachers are really important for our learning and growth. Whether it’s in school, Sunday School, or on the mats it’s really valuable to have someone walking alongside as you engage the ups and downs of life.
Mrs. Rusch was my favorite teacher in 4th grade. She was a strong English woman who had a great combination of nurturing students and kicking our butts!
I am grateful for teachers, professors and life guides that have helped me out along the way. I have not always been the most teachable or most willing student. But thanks anyway! Erik J., Mark W., Mr. Kirk, Mr. Bentley, Mrs. Seilo, Ken L., Dr. Stein, Sr Luis Rivera Pagan. And countless others who have contributed to my learning and growing over the years.
And thanks today to Coach Turtle, Coach Wojtek, Coach Mike and their coaches and Professors. I feel confident that I am in a line of great learners and teachers in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I stand on a strong foundation of ethic and belief in my life. I am grateful for the community that raised me. I am certain I am building a strong foundation for my future studying this art. And for that I have great teachers to walk alongside each day on the mats. Thanks Coaches!
