The grappling matches that I have online

I just showed my sister (who hates MMA) your clips and she happily watched all three. She said "Now I find that fascinating...and there's no hitting!"

Wow! That's awesome to hear! I think a lot of people who don't necessarily like MMA could potentially enjoy submission-grappling...
 
My training group started out as a few buddies. Now, we've got a ton of people with backgrounds in a variety of MAs. Just keep your growing gym genuine, train alive, and focus on finding that happy medium between live training and your training partner's safety.
 
This was one I put together just of my leglock entries, which is, no doubt, a bit silly. But I'm kind of a silly guy. I'm big into role-playing games and video games where you can make your own character, and I get that same sort of feeling doing this kind of thing. Somehow, putting myself behind music I like has this feeling of giving myself super-powers:

That's really cool to hear. Sometimes, I feel like people have this...issue with people starting their own thing in the martial arts. Have you ever seen 'No Retreat, No Surrender'....? I honestly feel like it captures something real in the way the main character runs into a hard time for incorporating the fruits of independent study into his game.
