Hellooooooo Dreamerssssssssssssssss!!!! 


Man it has been awhile since i've said that. First things first, my apologies for not updating you on the recent life events that caused Season 2 to end aburptly. It was a crazy year to say the least. 

Anywho, I'm back with one of my good friend who is a 3x PanAms Gi Champion, 3x Master Worlds Champ, PanAms NoGI Champ, Silver in NoGi Worlds,Bronze in Gi Worlds, and Pentagon Coach, Black Belt Sa'idah "GingjaNinja" Durkee. I've know Sa'idah my entire time in BJJ and we have become close friends over the years so it was an honor to have her on the show FINALLY.
