Good interview with BJJ Blackbelt Matt Thornton
I have not posted all that much about juijitsu training. Mostly because i have not been grappling as much as i would like lately. I’ve been at Crossfit Portland alot, learning to coach the various movements and helping out. Then i was out of town for a weeks. But things a bit more settled down now, so i have been able to get back in and grapple some more.
Here is a good recent interview with Matt Thornton, whom i train under. Matt’s has some great insights on BJJ and training in general. I can say first hand that the teaching methods at the Straight Blast Gym are top notch.

About Me
I am a Crossfit Level 1 trainer at Crossfit Portland and a brazillian juijitsu blue belt under Matt Thorton of the Straight Blast Gym. I am also certified as a NSCA CPT. I teach classes at Crossfit Portland and try to grapple at least a couple of times a week at Straight Blast. I am interested in all aspects of training. For myself i am striving to the find the balance in training improves my strength, but does not neglect the other aspects needed for grappling like speed, conditioning, and explosiveness. Its a never ending journey, and i suppose there is no perfect program that will work forever.
