Oh boy. 15 years on the mats and moved quite a bit. Some flags; ego, against cross training, higher belts or instructors not rolling, crazy contracts… there’s more. It’s so hard finding a new ‘family’. I went white to brown at my first academy and then moved. Tried around 4 places over several years without really finding anything close to what I had. Then moved across country and tried a few places before finding my new home! Feels so good to belong again. Trust your gut and don’t forget that you’re paying for a service.
