2018,2017, 2016 Belgium summer camp, 2018 Iceland Summer camp.

Which BJJ Globetrotters camps have you attended and which camp has been your favorite so far??

I love the camps in Belgium.

Favorite stories/moments from the camps?

I love the open mat rolling and being able to meet so many people from around the globe who love Jiu Jitsu. Also the water slides at the Sportoase are pretty amazing.

Your favorite class/classes to teach at camp?

Probably the impassible guard class. That was fun. I also like to teach women’s classes

Anything else you want to add to your profile? 

Going through this pandemic and not training with many people this last 9 months has really made me appreciate all the Jiu Jitsu travel I have done in the last 18 years. I miss it so much and I really hope that I can participate in more Globetrotter camps in the near future.
