About the author - the epiphany.

Epiphany - a sudden intuitive leap of understanding, especially through an ordinary but striking occurrence.

It wasn't until 40 years of life experiences materialized into wisdom, that it became clear and evident: movement and mobility! That was it! Half-unconsiously, this had been my physical agenda. And it wasn't the end purpose but rather the enabler of life's many great offerings. So in classic text-book case of retro-engineering, I began to organize the pieces of what called for this ubiquitous definition. CJJ was the merging of all dexterities desired by a healthy and able body: strength, flexibility, endurance, rythm, coordination, balance, stability, range of motion, agility, responsiveness, oxygenation and the list will go on as new developments are achieved. To simplify, this is 360 cross trainning. As I'm about to turn 40, I have an irresistible urge to make a positive contribution to those who happen to come in contact with me. And this is it! The language of the body is universal. There are no political or religious views to discuss, no difference of opinion, only one omnipresent factual truth: a healthy body is your best bet, your best investment, the one with the greatest returns. This became a path of personal discovery and self-awareness. Cuban Jiu Jitsu is my way. The martial has been eliminated from this art, only pure and clean meditation remains.

My external goal: I just need to touch 1 life and hope it carries forward, then it's a full cycle. It's touch and go. It's more giving than taking. It's movement and mobility. It's about stoking the fire and a calming desire. You could even call it the fountain of love.
