Sorry for the long delay in between our last episode!

Today's episode features on our first Skokie Originals, Kerry "Kato" Murakami. Kerry is a recent Black Belt (November 2019), and has over 27 years of experience in law enforcement. He is also a combatives, range and scenario based instructor for his department.

Kerry also leads our Weapons Based Grappling Classes at New Breed Training Center. The class combines Self Defense Classes with Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in real life scenarios.

We look into his experiences both on and off the mats. Some of the things we touch on are:
- memorable Police Stories
- pulling over one of our students
- important self defense techniques
- weapons based grappling
- & more!

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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.
