  • Not only white belts

    (New) purple belt, MWB is such a great podcast and community. My wife and I found the podcast while road tripping, now it's our go to road trip soundtrack. MWB is not only amazing Jiujitsu information, but it applies so much into life in general. MWB helps us bed better people.
