  • Ep.58 - Ollie Kelly - Mattador Seminars
    Mar 6 2025

    If the pet rock was a million dollar idea, I think this one is even better. As a BJJ practicioner Ollie once missed out on a phenomal seminar he wanted to attend, being held right in his city. The problem was he had no idea there was a seminar being held in the first place.

    Out of frustration he decided to solve a problem he sees in the BJJ community. Not being able to easily find good seminars to attend or good talent to host local seminars.

    One of the best things about the BJJ community is how top level athletes and coaches can and will share their knowledge to average Joes like myself. That level of access is undheard of in other sports and what Ollie is doing with the Matador app will only help promote that within the BJJ community.

  • Ep. 57 - The Unstuck Academy - Audio Book
    Mar 5 2025

    This episode is a full reading of my book "The Unstuck Academy". There is some additional color commentary, rabbit holing, and ad libbing in the audio version.

    The goal of this book is really simple, help Jiu Jitsu Academy owners get Unstuck in their business. In my own personal experience from running my gym the first step in running a successful business was realizing it was much more than just teaching classes.

    After that realization I learned to see the holes in my business and prioritize higher value roles and tasks. Long story short I'm stubborn and once upon a time I was given a friendly slap in the face to see my business in a new light.

    I hope this book can provide a similar experience for you.

    If you want to get a PDF copy of the book had on over to www.Growjitsu.com/book where you can download it.

    If you liked the book and want help implementing it's content or growing your Jiu Jitsu academy you can head on over to https://growjitsu.com/request-a-demo and book a one-on-one demo with me to take a look at your business and make a game plan to start adding students and seeing consistent growth.

  • Ep. 56 - Ken "Revoy" - The Old Way Jiu Jitsu
    Feb 27 2025

    Revoy and I are old training partners and though he was always significantly better than me at jiu jitsu, he was always kind about it. On this episode he reminded me that we were both promoted to blue belt the same day, and while I am still a blue belt, he's gone on to earn his black belt and open his own academy.

    We have a great conversation about his take on running a Jiu Jitsu academy which is taught me two things I did not know. The first being that Revoy is wickeldly smart, and second that his academy will do well because from day one he understands what is required to be successful long term.

    He's also got a really interesting take on developing coaches from within that has a lot of promise.
