Episode 4: Coronacation

In The Deep is on location this week at Blue Bonnet Beer Company. I interview my student and friend David Hulama. David started Jiu-Jitsu at age 50. Listen as he tells you about his experiences in Jiu-Jitsu and much more.

In this Episode of the In The Deep, I am joined by Coach Ryan of Nu Era BJJ (CJJF Hilo). Coach Ryan and I discuss the corona virus pandemic globally and locally. We also discuss ways our schools have dealt with closures and government mandates. Lastly, we discuss our plans to keep our students motivated during the time our gyms must remain closed.

In this Episode of In The Deep, I invited my student and friend, Greg Parris, to share his experiences with injuries in combative sports. Greg has extensive experience in wrestling, Judo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and Mix Martial Arts. His experiences has also brought many injuries while preparing for competitions and MMA fights. Listen as Greg and I distinguish between being "hurt" or "injured" while going over mindset as we return from an injury and much, much more.  

On this second episode I invited Dan Shaw and Josh Payseno to speak about their own journey as Blue Belts. Blue Belt is one of the hardest belts to get through because it requires the longest time outside of Black Belt where you will be faced with many trials and tribulations. Join me as the boys talk about their experiences and give advice to the newly promoted and seasoned Blue Belts. 

Many couples train Jiu Jitsu together. It's a great way to stay active and fit with one another, and gives couples another way to communicate.  Listen in as Professor Myron Kamihara and his Wife Luana share their experiences being married and training together and also how Jiu Jitsu is a great benefit to women, and how women benefit the sport of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
