Scramble Matt took a trip to Tokyo recently and this is the result.
It’s basically me getting my butt kicked at three jiu jitsu classes.
I can’t say enough great things about the fight community in Tokyo – so helpful, friendly, welcoming – not to mention tough.
I visited Rikako Yuasa at Jewels BJJ class, Nakamura Daisuke at Grabaka, and Hiroyuki Abe at AACC gym for a spot of no gi / catch. Ouch!
I had visions of much more footage of Tokyo but sadly it rained most of every day which limited the amount of filming I could do. So just enjoy gratuitous jiu jitsu rolling.
Rikako
Hiroyuki Abe
Daisuke Nakamura
I highly recommend visiting all three if you find yourself in Tokyo.
Special thanks to Kinya Hashimoto and Takehiro Iso for looking after me during the trip.
