🥋 Why is BJJ fun? Let us count the ways…
For us, it’s the challenge stepping on the mat and being better than we were last class. It’s the grind, the growth, and yeah… sometimes it’s showing up and then laughing at our mistakes. Father and son. On the mat and off it. Os Del Rio represent! 💪

“The Tatami is the greatest teacher, but only to the student humble enough to listen.”
Have you ever noticed how the people who improve the most are the ones who stay the most coachable?
Today I had another great session with Professor Dudu, and as he walked me through his review of this week’s specific training at GB1, GB2, and that live match review too… I realized something.
Growth isn’t loud. It’s quiet. It’s in the details only a trained eye can see.
And when you start to really listen, not just hear, but absorb, you begin to feel the shifts before you see them. The flow gets smoother. The mindset gets quieter. The game starts to open up.
There are no secrets. There is no magic. Just a Professor who sees what you can’t yet see in yourself… and a student willing to trust the process long enough to become it. #EverydayPorrada
What’s one area in your life where you’re ready to stop forcing, and start flowing?
Drop a Oos if you feel this.

GB | Mat Talk | Let’s Talk Grip
Quick question. How much are you actually thinking about your grip when you roll?
Not how hard you squeeze. How intentional you are with it. I think I tend to hold on because I’m thinking sweep, or I’m thinking about my training partner not sweeping me. Okay, maybe I’m trying to fake them out I’m going do something haha.
Every grip should have a job. A setup. A purpose. If you cannot answer what your grip is doing right now, is it really working for you or just holding on?
Think about that before your next roll. One grip. One job. See what opens up.
And tape your fingers maybe?
See you on the mat.

I showed up with two left feet, a borrowed gi, and 15 years of rust acting like it was still relevant 😂

What’s the one piece of advice you wish someone told you on Day 1?
Could be about technique. Could be about your ego. Could be about your GI size 😂
Could be something nobody talks about but EVERYBODY needed to hear.
