My Second Family

I am very thankful for my family at Grove City Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy. I first joined the gym about a year ago, after attending sporadically as an outsider for a few months. By sharing time on the mats together, and by shedding blood, sweat, and tears together, we have truly become like a family. Jiu-jitsu has a way of bringing together people of all different lifestyles in a way that I have never seen before. I truly look forward to what the years have in store for me and my BJJ family.

Incredible Weekend!

I am extremely grateful for all the support I got for the Special Olympics Special Smiles event this past weekend. Dentists, dental students, residents, dental hygienists, lay people, and even some children came to help out for the event. I am especially thankful for the help from Nationwide Children's Hospital and The Ohio State University.
