NEXT STOP LONDON!!!! What an awesome time I had in my first big step in moving to LA to pursue my passion in Acting.. This has been a massive move for me and I had to make a lot of big life changes and battle a lot of demons to make this happen.. But I have had so much help along the way from so many people including many who donated to my cause at kitdalebjj I really appreciate all the help and support guys :) I want to say a few special mentions to some people who helped me over here.. Sean Patrick Flanery and all the boys at Hollywood BJJ for giving me a place to train and great sparring.. I will have a green card here by March and be able to start working in the industry and start my climb to the top.. Now I leave to compete I am awesome BJJ Super fight event Polaris representing Tatami.. Im very happy to have the opportunity to compete in events like this still considering my time away from the mats.. Which is something I will clarify for you all now.. Yes Im still competing and training in BJJ but only as a hobby.. Not as a full time thing.. I never did do the full time BJJ Athlete thing anyways, but I did train at least 5 times a week.. Now I train twice a week.. I feel like Im still learning at the same rate, I just dont have the fitness and conditioning to back it up.. So it makes me consider retiring from BJJ as I know I cant compete against someone training 2-3 times a day when I get less than that in a week sometimes.. But I will continue because I love the art and it helps me grow as an individual.. And gives me good characteristics in which I can take into bigger parts of my life now.. So yes I will compete but not as much and not for the medal.. But for the art and myself! Before I go I want to give one shoutout to a family here in LA that have become my own family.. Thats the Gonzales Crew, Aaron, Aaron jr and Natacha.. They have basically given me a room to stay and place to live for the past two months here free of charge.. Just to help me out, we had never even met before I landed.. How amazing is that.. I owe this family so much and I will always be in there debt.. Its amazing to see that there are people in this world that will still give everything without the expectation of getting back.. So thank you :) So now I leave to London for a month.. Then I swing back past Australia to film and act in my brother Scotts new short film.. Beyond The Waters Edge.. Then Ill be back here in LA for good :) Love you all.. Peace!
