36. From Mat-Side to Dinner Table: The Realities of a Jiu Jitsu Family

  • Summary

  • On this special episode of The GI Spot Podcast, Rach and Kaz switch things up as they sit down with two very special guests—Rach’s 18-year-old son Connor and Kaz’s 12-year-old daughter Addy. Growing up in Jiu Jitsu families comes with its own unique experiences, and today, we’re getting a fresh perspective from the next generation.


    Together, they chat about what it’s like being surrounded by Jiu Jitsu their whole lives—whether they love it, feel pressured by it, or just see it as part of their everyday reality. They also dive into the broader world of sports, discussing how training, competition, and discipline shape their mindset and relationships outside of the gym.


    But it’s not all about the mats! They open up about the dynamics of being part of a Jiu Jitsu family, how it compares to their friends’ experiences, and—of course—the classic sibling struggles that come with having a Black Belt or a highly competitive martial artist in the house. From mat-side cheering to arguments over who gets the last post-training snack, no topic is off-limits!


    Expect laughs, a little bit of roasting, and some eye-opening insights as these two share their unfiltered thoughts on growing up in the Jiu Jitsu world. Whether you're a parent, a sibling, or just someone who loves hearing different perspectives on the sport, this episode is one you won’t want to miss.


    Tune in for a fun, family-driven episode that proves Jiu Jitsu isn’t just a sport—it’s a lifestyle that shapes the whole family!
