Luckily never in the snow! Now, I travel about 35 minutes by car to get to my current jitsu school... it's very much worth it though. I listen to the Fightworks Podcast to pass the time :D.

I try at least once a week but sometimes I don't make it. But my Instructor Ricardo Guimares is simply outstanding as person and a even better teacher. Alway willing to show us the little details in the moves more importantly asking us how we are doing. There are three BJJ school in my town and I pass many more on the way but chose to go there becuase of the way he is and how are school is run. Ther upper belts never make you feel as if they are better on tougher they actually go out of there way to help by teaching us to learn the moves properly or what might work better for us.
