Films, features, and footage from inside the grappling world. Interviews, event coverage, and original productions from Grappling Monthly.
From Rio de Janeiro to Montreal’s West Island, Professor Marcelo Bonança talks about starting in martial arts, leaving a finance career, reconnecting with jiu-jitsu in Canada, and what it means to teach in a way students can actually absorb.
If you train jiu-jitsu long enough, pain is not the surprise. The real question is whether you know how to recover intelligently and stay on the mats.
This is a conversation about what it means to go from being a student in someone else's room to being the person who sets the culture, the pace, and the standards for your own.
Mauricio "Tinguinha" Mariano joins The Grappling Monthly Podcast for a conversation on the older generation of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, the transition from vale tudo culture to modern academy structure, and the changes that helped jiu-jitsu grow around the world. Prof. Tinguinha is a 6th degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, a spider guard pioneer, and the owner and head instructor of Tinguinha BJJ in Yorba Linda, California.
