Message from Brian

“First of all, I’m still California dreaming. What an incredible experience that I am so glad to have shared with my teammates. Just wanted to take a moment to thank my Savarese Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu family for helping us all prepare for this moment. All of us competing wanted to give you something to cheer about and can’t thank you enough for your positive vibes! Many positive things to take away from this experience. However, the one big thing I took away from this experience was having confidence. It confirmed for me that we are learning things the right way. Another thing, those of us representing our school name belonged on a big stage such as this tournament. Thanks Professor Chris Savarese for always being our number 1 fan through our journey of improvement. Most of all, for never losing confidence in what we’re capable of.”
