How can you elevate your Jiu-Jitsu faster? Take notes!

This episode is packed with actionable practices to enhance your retention, refine your skills, and improve your overall Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

We are big believers in the power of taking notes and keeping a Jiu-Jitsu journal to improve your Jiu-Jitsu.

This episode was inspired by a recent blog post from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach Ray Casias.  He shares seven critical points on why note-taking is indispensable for any BJJ practitioner. 

Whether you're a beginner eager to accelerate your learning curve or a seasoned practitioner looking for new ways to refine your techniques, this episode offers valuable perspectives and insights to make your training more focused and effective.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
