Jiu Jitsu Dummies Podcast, presented by Black Belt Digital Marketing and AcademySafe.org

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Scott Burr, a jiu-jitsu black belt and co-author of Worth Defending. Scott shares insights into his collaboration with Richard Bresler, his legendary co-author, who helped introduce Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to the United States and was instrumental in the UFC's early days. We discuss Richard’s ongoing medical battle, exploring the resilience and community spirit that jiu-jitsu brings in times of challenge. Join us as we dive deep into Scott’s journey, the impact of Worth Defending, and the lessons from jiu-jitsu that resonate beyond the mat.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
