On this episode of the podcast, Chewy and Eugene are joined by Jason "Blind Fury" Keaton.
Jason is a BJJ black belt, musician, and owner of Blind Fury Jiu-Jitsu Academy.
Jason discusses his start in martial arts, first starting his training in Wing Chun and then transitioning to BJJ in 1996, what it was like learning martial arts with visual impairment, how learning Wing Chun helped with learning BJJ, training as much as possible as a younger grappler, meeting Renato Tavares, the evolution of BJJ training, improving your BJJ by working from your worst positions, how to tell if you train at a good gym, how he developed an effective side control, staying healthy as you get older, coming back from a severe neck injury, how learning music transfers to BJJ, and how he got the nickname "Blind Fury."
