The Couple That Rolls Together...

We are Thomas (Tommy) and Karyn Borscheid. We discovered jiujitsu in our early 40s (Tommy started in 2013 and convinced Karyn to join by 2014)… and quickly became completely obsessed. Though we have day jobs, we still try to make time to train no matter where we are.

Between the two of us, we’ve trained in cities around the world at over 30 academies. We’ve competed some, won some gold (and other metals). But really we do this because we love it…

We now teach some jiujitsu classes at our academy, Anderson’s Martial Arts in New York City. Karyn additionally is a certified Kettlebell Kickboxing instructor under Dasha Anderson.

We decided to start this site as a place to share our thoughts on food, gear, life - navigating training with full-time jobs, getting older, and staying healthy. All the things we talk about on this site are 100% of our own volition.
