Shoving is not Jiu-Jitsu

Inner calm… easier said than done. I almost lost my cool in Jiu-Jitsu class today. I got so mad when I was rolling (aka sparring, grappling) with Gary. I felt stuck and frustrated (which isn’t a new jiu-jitsu feeling) and at one point, I think I tapped out and shoved him away from me. Oops. I wasn’t mad at him. Just mad. And fighting angry doesn’t help. I breathed through it and calmed down a little. Point for improvement.. noted.
