This weeks episode is brought to you by Do Hard Things Coaching and Consulting.  This week we talk to Master Rickson Gracie and Craig Husband. We discuss Master Rickson's breathing philosophies and how he is using them to train First Responders around the Country.

Master Rickson Gracie was born into Gracie Jiu Jitsu on November 21, 1959 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.  Master Rickson took on all challengers in bouts in the ring, on the street, and on the beach and carried the weight that came with being his family’s last line of defense. Master Rickson moved to America in 1989 to help his brother Rorion establish their first Jiu Jitsu Academy in Torrance, California.
After retiring in 2006 with an unprecedented, undefeated record of 465-0, Master Rickson focused all of his energy on spreading the art of Jiu Jitsu.  Even today, the 8th degree black belt’s technique is considered to be the finest expression of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu in the world. Celebrated for invincibility on the mat and dignified conduct outside the ring, Master Rickson is known as a modern day samurai and inspires others to follow in his footsteps and strive for greatness. He has taught students from all walks of life:  men, women, children, senior citizens, handicapped students, FBI Agents, SWAT Teams, Navy Seals, military personnel, martial artists of various styles, athletes and actors.  Thanks to his dedicated efforts as teacher, Gracie has built a legacy of disciplined students, teachers, and warriors. Today he continues to teach special classes and seminars to help spread and further refine his family’s art. He presently is the president of the JIUJITSU GLOBAL FEDERATION, RICKSON ACADEMY and RICKSON GRACIE CUP whose mission is to restore Jiu Jitsu’s effectiveness, increase the art’s popularity by offering Jiu Jitsu community with a true representation of our culture, art, and tradition.

Craig worked a wide variety of assignments during his career including Jails, Patrol, Major Crimes, Narcotics, Vice and Intelligence, Training Academy, Selective Enforcement Detail,  and Personnel.  Collateral assignments include Swat Team, Hostage Negotiation Team and Academy Weaponless Defense Instructor.  He spent 11 years of his  career serving as Undersheriff.
