Howdy Norman.

Thomas told me to get in contact with you in regards to counseling in the lifestyle program.

Absolutely, I'm all about it. Did you have any specific questions?

Not sure what you need me to do haha, Thomas recommended this and im always down to help out more.

Ohh in the leadership capacity? Awesome, what do you train? And any primary passions dealing with Martial Arts/Fitness

Planning on starting Jujitsu soon, and actually wanted your input on that aspect. What would the best martial arts be from a self defense stand point. Primary passions mostly is focusing on calisthenics now and consistently hitting the gym 3-4 times a week.

Well that depends on exact goals, but typically Krav Maga/Systema are best for real self defense. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai are also fantastic arts, in sports and in self defense.

Interesting i'll be looking into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Muay Thai then. Definitely experience i need to get under my belt.

Jiu-Jitsu is 100% my addiction

Awesome man thanks for your suggestion. I've been wanting to get into the martial arts space for awhile just don't know where to start.

Well you've got the options now, I know gyms internationally too. If you want a spot vetted, let me know

I'll be looking around the Richmond area in VA. I have to see whats out there.

Oh nice! I used to live out there

I'll get you a list of spots
