Prof Irakli was born and raised in Georgia a country in the Caucasus Mountain region at the intersection of Europe and Asia. He shares his story of moving to the US and finding Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Prof Irakli is the fastest student I’ve promoted to Black Belt and have always been impressed by his techniques he’s developed and he has taught me a lot. Those that know him, know he’s a man of few words so it was a big pleasure to sit down with him and share some his story.

Sean Patrick Flanery is an American actor, producer, author and martial artist. He is known for his main role in the Boondock Saints and just released his film Born a Champion which is a 2021 American martial arts drama. It stars Flanery, Dennis Quaid and Katrina Bowden. The film also features mixed martial arts fighter Edson Barboza, with appearances by Renzo Gracie and Mickey Gall. I watched Born a Champion with my family and was really moved by the accuracy of the movie and capturing this era of time of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Vale Tudo/Mixed Martial Arts.
