the jurogan experience yeah you're in a jiu jitsu i remember that i remember i ran into you at the ufc it was a couple of years ago and you were you're like really into jiu jitsu like you train hard i was super super into it until kovid hit and then when covet hit i just yeah i got really really nervous because i have asthma and autoimmune [ __ ] so um i just i i got really nervous about training so close with anybody that i took a break from it but i'm i'm anxious to get back i want i can't wait to train it's a good humbler that's a good thing to keep you balanced it's the best thing i found for i mean outside of meditation for me it's two totally different things but it's kind of different but not but yeah you're right yeah this jiu jitsu people are some of the calmest people i've ever met in my life they're all chill totally yeah especially when they get into like flow rolling mm-hmm like that is meditative that is meditation sure yeah i love it i think even like hard sparring is meditative because you're forced to think only of that thing and when you think about that thing only it acts as like a cleansing yes it blows all that and also it's so hard to do that regular stuff seems easy yeah like regular live scenes yeah some some pitches on top of you trying to college yeah yeah but it's also like really empowering when you're collar choking you're like when you're mounting on someone yeah when you're mounting on someone and you're just yeah it's it's crazy right it's empowering for sure when you do you remember the first time you tap somebody out i actually don't uh that's good that means you probably tapped a bunch of people out um i i i've tapped out a few people in my time in the wild though yeah what's really wild is like when you
surpass yourself like you think i don't know i just i never thought that i'd get a blue belt like i just never thought that i'd be a belt in anything i'm i'm a singer like and then hard work pays off and it's just really cool when when you get to prove yourself wrong well if you get to a blue belt you're at purple belt and if you get the purple belt you can get the black belt totally that's all it is it's just just keep where are you training so i was training at unbreakable okay yeah in west hollywood that's a great gym i love that gym so much famous people can go there too it's like yes for whatever reason snoop goes there where's khalifa goes there stallone goes there yeah so um the reason why it's so chill is they have like a no like cameras policy it's kind of like the soho house of yeah and a lot of athletes go in and train there too but um but it's private and it's super chill i used to train there and then i yeah um then i started training at my apartment building that i was living in and i got a house so i just will train there but so do you um have you gone to like other jiu jitsu schools like if you're on the road have you ever done that i have yeah i've gone to random places throughout the country um but i couldn't tell you the name and there weren't also a lot of people in there right um limited to the amount of people just a small amount of people that you can train with yeah um or or just my trainer you know it's hard for me i not a lot of people wanted to let me train with other people in like a like a outside of a private lesson did they worry about like you getting hurt yeah they were worried about people being like and then you sue the [ __ ] out of them right or or just not being able to walk on stage right oh my god right you know so many heel hooks and then
