The Grappling Dummy interview with Nic Gregoriades

Since the last two videos were well recieved, I wanted to stick this one here, too. I hope that's OK.

It's an interview and some training with Nic Gregoriades, who is a black belt under Roger Gracie.

You might see Nic fighting MMA one day, and if you do, you can say you saw it here first!

Manto Presents: The Grappling Dummy - Nic Gregoriades from martial farts on Vimeo.

Presented by Manto.

The next instalment of The Grappling Dummy!

In this episode, I talk to Nic Gregoriades, a black belt under Roger Gracie.

Nic was kind enough to come down to our gym and give a BJJ workshop, and give his time to make this video.

We talk about what it's like to train with Roger Gracie, and about the Jiu Jitsu Brotherhood

We also have a little roll while Nic shares his philosophies on jiu jitsu.

After that, Nic does something a little different and offers a "shadow grappling" routine. Something simple that you can practice when you don't have a partner, that allows you to continue to work on your body skills.

Nic is a great guy and it was a pleasure to spend the day with him.

Please be sure to click on all the links I've provided here to keep this project going!

I was unashamedly inspired by E. Casey Leydon of All Elbows and MMA FIghting to edit this in black and white after his awesome Joe Rogan videos.

I hope you enjoy the video.

These are great

I really liked the shadow rolling he was doing and the explanation that followed.
