I'd been training at a 10th Planet for about 8 months before moving (back) to New Jersey. 10th…read morePlanet is a no-gi school but a lot of the schools around here are either mostly gi or at least 50/50. When looking for schools I really kept in mind the culture because even though I fell in love with BJJ at 10th, I was really turned off by the atmosphere, relationships, and just overall attitudes. I'm sure the negative, sexist, homophobic undertones negatively impacted by training. It wasn't a kind place to be so I wanted to find somewhere that was welcoming, warm. I found that at Aesthetic Temple. They were brand new when I moved back and have grown so much. Being there is like stepping into your house - it's home! I'm learning to train gi and continuing with my no-gi training. Classes are challenging but fun. You'll laugh as much as you learn and work up a sweat with some awesome teammates. Professor Mike is understanding, patient, knowledgable and SO passionate about what he does. I love his holistic philosophy and constant guidance. His wife, Mindy, is supportive and encouraging. It's really a family effort and I love coming in to train everyday! So glad I found AT and can't wait to continue my education and grow as a jj student. Highly recommend investing the time to check out classes.

A month ago, I decided I needed to get my confidence back and joined Spyda Muay Thai on a trial…read moremembership. I'm not going to lie and say that it's been easy. My journey the past 9.5 months has definitely been difficult. I wasn't supposed to live, but I defied the odds and survived sudden cardiac arrest on June 25th (only 8% do), had an S-ICD implanted in my side on July 1st, had open heart mitral valve surgery on September 15th, a blood clot/TIA/mini stroke on September 22nd, and a cardioversion on November 11th. Throughout, I was as active as my recovery would allow, which isn't saying much. In January, I started working out like I did pre everything, trying hard to get back to my pre-everything fitness level. When I heard they had opened a Muay Thai gym in Garwood, I went to check out a session and ended up participating. I have absolutely no training in Muay Thai, but rather traditional boxing so I was definitely intimidated. What I learned is that the people in this gym are awesome humans who really care about everyone's success, no matter what that looks like individually. I decided to do this because boxing always gave me such confidence and concentration and I knew I needed both again. After having my world flipped over, things haven't been great. It's been a long road that seems never ending but this is helping. It's really hard for me. But I am doing it and I am really proud of myself. The first class, I was hit with the realization that my brain is not the same as it was pre SCA. Truth is, I knew this, but I tried so hard to pretend it wasn't my reality. I have trouble remembering what I knew so well and am forced to relearn everything each session, sometimes multiple times during the hour as my brain loves to reset itself. We're talking true basics like how to jumprope (I fight with the rope each session as my brain doesn't talk to my wrists doesn't talk to my feet), stances, the difference between a jab, cross and hook (for whatever reason, I remember the uppercut)-- never mind remembering combinations that were just called and thoroughly explained a couple of minutes prior. It's actually been easier for me to learn the kicks because I don't get frustrated with them but rather try to understand the why of each one. I'd highly recommend Spyda Muay Thai to anyone, no matter what your fitness level or experience. "Spyda" is a tremendous teacher and such an amazing person. Everyone is absolutely incredible at this gym. Please don't think you can't. I am living proof that you can do it and there will be a bunch of people there who will cheer you on and motivate you to keep going. Believe me, I know that it can be completely intimidating, but once you step foot into the gym, those fears will disappear.
