Mike Mahaffey( @OldBastardBJJ ) has made a name for himself by helping other "old bastard" grapplers stay on the mat consistently. He recently joined the show to talk some ideas on longevity but after getting to train together I thought it would be even more fun to talk about how the right techniques and concepts make longevity possible.

Can 2 Officers Make a Difference?

Ross Tyler (purple belt) and Sam Luna (brown belt) think so!

Join us in this compelling episode as we interview two dedicated police officers who are not only my bjj students but also Jiu Jitsu instructors for their fellow officers.

They share their firsthand experiences and insights on how consistent Jiu Jitsu training can transform law enforcement. We discuss the critical need for better training to ensure safety for both officers and citizens, tackling the root issues of violence in policing.

Discover their actionable plan to reduce reliance on weapons— "tools"—by empowering officers with effective self-defense skills. This conversation sheds light on a practical solution that could make a significant difference in communities everywhere.

We at ISAJJ Hope that this conversation can change the way that people view police officer training.
