Brown belt 👍🏽
At this point belts mean the least to me they’ve ever meant, for every brown/black belt im better than there’s just as many blues/purples that could smash me, from both a competitive & coaching perspective.
What means the most is receiving my belt from @spudjitsu and with my whole team @faberjiujitsu being happy for me, it’s feels good to come into a belt without imposter syndrome, knowing that I have it because spud believes im at that level competitively, and once injuries are fixed I will be excited to continue to test myself In a new phase ❤️
Lastly thank you to everyone @levelsmmacoventry for allowing me to build the students we have as a head coach as a purple belt, everything will continue to improve as per, better never stops 🍫

Big drama show 😤
Pics from @leicester_grappling_series last weekend, great show and a great experience for my first (and maybe only ever 🥴) super fight show 🔥
The moment you think you know it all is the moment you stop growing.
Another CLA camp done, plenty of new ideas, understandings and thoughts provoked, excited to get back to training and coaching ❤️🔥
Huge thanks to @gdsouders & @max.bickerton for putting on another invaluable camp, and always taking the time to help others develop when it could be far easier to gate keep knowledge ❤️
Truly blessed to be in a position to travel and do what I love with the people I love 🥹
Goal is to be injury free for the next camp 🥴

Truly blessed to have been given the opportunity to compete on @leicester_grappling_series and honoured to have represented @faberjiujitsu to the best of my ability.
Those that know me understand how much I truly hate competing, and due to anxieties, serious injuries and life, this was no different, luckily, for reasons I have no idea of, I finally found my flow state under pressure, and I can only thank my team @faberjiujitsu , my love @melissa_mullins_ufc & @_jameslilly , @connorlucas__ , @jameshxll , @iamryansahota & @spudjitsu for having the belief in me that I still am working on finding.
Lastly, i am honoured to be able to be in a role of influence in my academy @levelsmmacoventry and being able to show my kids me leading from the front ❤️
Now we heal, rebuild and come back better ❤️🔥
Crazy reels to follow, sorry not sorry for the celebrations 😂
@hadimeetsworld for the phenomenal photography 😤
If it ain’t fun then what’s the point 🙅🏽♂️
On and off the mats, lucky to have the people I have around me ❤️🔥 up the @faberjiujitsu 🤌🏽

Intent, intent, intent…
Here are 2 of my students, Ismaeel & Sufyaan, 6 & 7 years old and under 12 months training each.
This week and last I’ve been introducing the kids to entangling the legs in order to destabilise and get on top, simultaneously working on dealing with/passing entanglements.
Ismaeel & Sufyaan are a good representation of Levels, just normal kids, both white belts training a couple times a week, crazy at times & having lots of fun training, yet in the video we can see such young kids training with more intent than most adults ever do, you see them battling for connections and the inside space as the seated player before connecting to hips & legs, controlling both legs as often as possible, you see top player working to maintain balance whilst clearing feet to safely disengage/pass as well as working outside passing when disconnected.
Is it messy? Yes. Do they fail as much as they win? Of course, maybe even more, but this is what skill development looks like and they are developing real technique that is adaptable and robust long before they even reach double digits in age, crazy!
These are just the kids I happened to be sitting near to make sure they didn’t fall out, hence why I recorded them, but make no mistake about it that the entire room had the exact same level of intent 👌🏽
Bring your kids to levels 👍🏽
