Twisted

Sometimes it seems that in order for me to understand and execute some of the techniques I'm being shown, I still have to break it down like I'm playing a game of twister...

"Okay, my right hand goes on the blue dot, and my left one on the red. Then I have to put my leg around them and try to put my right foot on the yellow dot."

Then halfway through some of the more advanced maneuvers, I forget which hand is supposed to be on which dot, or which dot is which color, or even where the dots are.

So I humbly request that all members of Team Jiu-Jitsu Fighter start wearing gis with twister dots on them! I think it would make teaching and training so much easier. It also seems appropriate since we like twisting people into pretzels. We could even look into covering our mats with twister boards, and installing a giant spinner on the wall. With our cool new twister gis we would be the talk of the town, and we could change our name to Team Twisted, or maybe Team Jiu-Jitsu Twister. Fear the dots!
