Eric Medina, Joey Hauss from the Los Angeles Jiu Jitsu Club Jun 06, 2017

Show notes

This week I'm on location with Eric Medina and Joey Hauss at the Los Angeles Jiu Jitsu Club. The Jean Jacques Machado Jiu Jitsu stand outs are well known from competition success in both gi and no gi action and have even taken to organizing their own tournaments under the USSGL banner in California . Their LA Jiu Jitsu Club is an awesome place to visit and train. It's basically AirBNB meets a Jiu Jitsu academy. The place even has a swimming pool.

John Cardenas in Studio May 30, 2017

Show notes

Today on the show we've got an unreleased episode from "the vault" . This one took a while to get edited as we were having some technical difficulties with a mixer at the time. We initially recorded this following John's win at Bellator ( Fedor vs Mitrione ) in San Jose a few months ago . The last weeks have been so busy it's actually taken quite a while to go back and get the audio sorted for this one.

We are one day removed from Memorial Day so I want to send a big " thank you " to all of the veterans past, present and future . You put your lives on the line and many do pay the ultimate price for our freedom back home so, again, thank you.

John Cardenas is a friend, training partner and an undefeated mixed martial arts fighter out of the American Kickboxing Academy.

In his own words:

I spent eight years in the United States Marine Corps Infantry from October 2003 - November 2011. I completed 2 combat tours to the most dangerous city in the world- Ramadi, Iraq with 2nd Battalion 5th Marines, Fox Company "Black Hearts." Numerous Humanitarian Aid missions throughout the Philippines, Thailand, Cambodia, Japan, and Bangladesh with 3rd Marine Expeditionary Force. I dedicated all of my fights to the military veterans, Fire fighters, and police officers who had to pay the ultimate sacrifice with his or her life for another ones freedoms. I also fight to promote awareness for veterans suffering from PTSD. I want to show that Mixed Martial Arts training can be an alternative therapy for those suffering with PTSD. They can take us out of the combat zone but they can not take the combat zone out of us. I want to thank all of the staff at Real Water, and Real MMA for giving me opportunities to prove my visions by doing something that I love to do. Finally, I want to thank GOD, my family, friends, coaches Guy Marzola, Kenny Marzola, Pete Martin, Leandro Lorenco, Michael Costa, Wanderlie Silva, Ninja Nick Wesley, Lance Parvin and the rest of my training partners from Wand Fight Team. Thank you for pushing me to be the best version of myself.

Eduardo Telles Apr 17, 2017

Show notes

Eduardo Telles is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt under Fabio Gurgel and one of the most creative grapplers in the World. Famed for being a fan of the "Esquijitsu" (a nickname applied to his game which translates to: weird Jiu Jitsu) he created several attacks from the turtle position, a position that was deemed a weaker position by most grapplers before Telles created the turtle guard, revolutionizing what once was defensive 'go-to' move. Eduardo Telles also created several trademark setups from a position that became famous as the Octupus Guard.
