E153: Sam Gibson - Black Belt
Informazioni su questo podcast
Welcome to the Jiu Jitsu Lou Podcast.
Hosted by Lou Temlett, this is a podcast about the people behind Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
From world champions, black belts and gym owners to white belts, community builders, coaches, entrepreneurs and everyday grapplers, these are honest conversations about the journeys, challenges and experiences that shape life on and off the mats.
The Jiu Jitsu Lou Podcast explores the stories that don't always get told: resilience, confidence, mental health, motherhood, identity, business, belonging, personal growth and the communities that make Brazilian Jiu Jitsu so much more than a sport.
With over 130 episodes and guests from across the UK and around the world, Lou shines a light on the people, projects and ideas helping to grow the grappling community.
Whether you're preparing for your first class, chasing your next belt, running an academy, or simply fascinated by the human side of Jiu Jitsu, you'll find stories, insights and inspiration here.
Real people. Real stories. Real Jiu Jitsu.
