#TBT to the day I achieved my first life goal – become a Black Belt World Champion 🥋🥇 Back in these days & when I was a kid coming up, you hardly ever saw a non Brazilian on the Worlds Black Belt podium. In the first 10yrs of the World Championships, it happened only a handful of times (@bjpenn, @garthtaylorjj, @albertocrane, @robertdrysdalejj) After traveling to Brazil for the first time to compete in the Worlds, barely 16yrs old, in 1999, I made it a life mission to win a Black Belt World title. But being in Oklahoma, just my dad & I & our students, far from world class Jiu-Jitsu made it very tough. I never won the Worlds at the lower belts & there were plenty of times when I wondered if I was ever going to be able to do it…
•
Things changed when Sensei Saulo @ribeirojiujitsu invited me to train with him & his brother @xanderibeirojj. I dropped out of college & ran up a pretty substantial credit card debt to travel & train with them consistently. I started to win more & more & I ended up doing what I never even dreamed of, becoming the first person to ever Grand Slam. (2007)
•
I won this world title in the last seconds because I learned how to embrace my journey & my failures. I saw numerous people winning all the time & I wondered what made them better than me. I grew to understand that what made me special wasn’t any particular talent or skill, but that I always kept showing up & trying my best. No one ever expected a kid from Oklahoma to be the next 🇺🇸 Black Belt World Champion, but I refused to stop fighting for my dream.
•
I went on to medal at the Worlds 8yrs in a row in 4 different weight classes. It used to eat me up that I never got a 2nd gold, but I’m very proud to have stood on that podium alongside the greats so many times, representing my country, & hopefully inspiring the next generations to go after their dreams despite any adversity standing in their way. Never stop fighting!!! 💪♾

Seminar @gymroyale_amsterdam last night was 7-9pm. Afterwards, I took pictures for around 30min. I was dying to train (didn’t train on Monday due to traveling) so I started getting rounds in with all of the Black Belts & advanced students. I didn’t stop rolling until almost 11pm… I got my training “fix” & feel balanced again & everyone loves to feel the @timeless_jiujitsu 😁
•
Here are some clips from my round with my new friend @amersfoortbjj. Everything I do here you can learn from me @bjj.fanatics & www.TimelessJiuJitsu.com. All techniques & positions you can use forever & learn at any level. This is what I love to teach!
