Jiu Jitsu Idiots Greg Witek

Ashur is a BJJ black belt and actively competes in both gi and no-gi. We rolled and then recorded a podcast at his gym "The Academy" located inside of the MyBody Complex in Northfield, IL.

Scott is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt under Jeff Serafin. We discuss his recent experience having a daughter competing in high school wrestling. Wrestling has exploded in popularity amongst young women and public schools are having to adapt quickly and in some cases begrudgingly. 

Edgar is a 1st degree Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and head of the adult programs at RŌL Academy in Orland Park. Interesting bonus if you train at RŌL Academy they have a private video library online for their students that includes actual classes and seminars. Edgar and RŌL Academy owner Thomas Rozdzynski have also implemented a Tac Fit lifting program to enhance the proper type of strength required for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. TacFit is the creation of the legendary Alberto Crane and we highly recommend listening to his interview with Joey Diaz on The Church podcast. 

Mario is a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu under Rodrigo "Comprido" Leite de Medeiros. He is the co-owner of The Barracks in North Aurora alongside his brother Luis where they teach elite nogi grappling.

Patrick is a 10th Planet brown belt under Josh Passini and the best insurance agent in Chicago. 

Mickey Delos Santos and Drich Alvarez are both 10th Planet Black belts and have been training with Greg & Russ for the better part of a decade.
