This blog is to record my many training and teaching experiences in the martial arts. I run my own Can-ryu Jiu-jitsu dojo, but I also do extra curricular training in other martial arts to keep my skills sharp and to add to my knowledge of the arts. My posts include information about martial arts theory and technique, self-defense, and training drills, in addition to my personal anecdotes. Oh, and I'm a woman if that's important to you.
