Join us for an exciting episode featuring Steve Grody, the "Master of Flow." Steve's diverse passions in martial arts, swing dancing, and LA graffiti have shaped his remarkable journey.

We delve into Steve's martial arts background, from his training in traditional Chinese Daoist systems to his experience with Jeet Kune Do and Inosanto Kali. Discover the philosophy of embracing what is useful and rejecting what is useless that has driven his training.

In addition to martial arts, Steve is a talented swing dancer who has honed his skills in Lindy Hop, East Coast Swing, West Coast Swing, and Freestyle Foxtrot. We explore his dedication to improvisational "social swing" and his experiences learning from renowned swing instructors.

Furthermore, Steve's passion for documenting LA graffiti since 1990 is an integral part of his journey. We discuss the technical and aesthetic aspects of graffiti, the social dynamics within the community, and the ethical and legal considerations associated with this expressive art form.

This episode offers a unique perspective on creativity, discipline, and the fascinating intersections of diverse passions.
