So my friend and teacher, Mamazinho, got interviewed by what I am told is a bigtime martial arts magazine in the UK called Martial Arts Illustrated. I took all the pictures and wrote most of the descriptions for the technical parts. Unfortunately some of the descriptive text was edited by the magazine's staff and doesn't come off quite as clear as I'd like. Oh well, it's my first time doing anything like this so I'm pleased as punch :)

It does look great. I am having a bit of trouble reading it, but the pix and layout look perfect.

Thanks for the kind words guys :)

On paper it reads just like you'd expect from a printed magazine. For some reason my scans look a little muddy and I hope it doesn't mean that my scanner is somehow pooping out.

LOL, I used that kneebar on some big cromag tonight and was reminded of Mamazinho. And what the hey, since I'm here and have nowhere else to put this here's Professor Micah Reyes, Master Carlos Gracie Jr and me at the Gracie Barra instructors meeting the day after the Pan Ams:
