Tonight my couple clients returned for the first lesson in a new 10-hour course on submission grappling. They have trained with me since 2019 across a wide range of disciplines. The current focus is guard work, split into three ranges. Tonight we worked on mid-range guard passing.

When I first stepped onto the mat, I thought martial arts was just about learning a set of moves and techniques. But over time, I realised it’s so much more than that. It’s a journey that’s deeply personal, and that’s where tailored martial arts programmes come into play. They transform the experience from a generic class into something that truly fits your needs, goals, and lifestyle.
