    The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 117: How & Why BJJ is Always Changing, Identity Politics

    As we all know, the sport of BJJ is always changing and evolving. Every competition is another opportunity to unleash a new move or attack, and the natural response that follows is, "How do we learn said attack and develop a solution for it?" I talk about trends in the sport, both old and new, kids’ BJJ, and staying ahead of the curve. I also discuss my most recent competition (Grappling Industries Vancouver) and some other current issues, such as Derek Moneyberg, Tim Kennedy's stolen valor, Ben Askren, Randy Couture, and antifascist freedom fighters, in the comments section.   Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can.

    The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 115: The Coyote Half Guard

    The coyote half guard is one of the best half guard systems in the sport. It’s is a big part of my game, and I believe every grappler should learn it. I discuss the most important details of the system, half guard fundamentals, how to win the whizzer vs. under hook battle, the dogbar, and shutting down the coyote half guard. The choice is between a sweep or your knee… what would you choose?   Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can. It really helps to grow the show!

    The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 111: Biggest Myths For Gym Owners

    Owning and operating a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu school is both a labour of love and a huge responsibility. Speaking from 10 years of experience running my own academy, I talk about the biggest myths that I heard surrounding gym ownership. Some topics of discussion are kids programs, building customer loyalty (the right way), ordering gear overseas, building profit, and big name affiliations. Maybe this episode turned into a bit of a venting session, but I think you will find it interesting nonetheless.   Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can.

    The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 110: The Kipping Escape

    Do you even kip, bro? If you don't know the kipping escape, or if you have given up on learning this move, then this is the episode for you! I discuss the mechanics of the kipping escape, when to use (and when not to use) the kip, common mistakes, and how to shut down and counter the kipping escape. Simply put, if you want to thrive in the modern BJJ landscape, you absolutely must understand and be able to utilize the kipping escape. I promise you; once you make the kipping escape a part of your game, your pin escapes and guard retention will be forever changed!     Please leave a review, subscribe, like, share, and comment if you can.
