Legends and Dragons 37- Greg Hamilton

Show Notes

Greg Hamilton joins Jimmy and Chance for another awesome episode. Greg shares his life story, from being born in the Soviet Union, his family fighting in the World War, and how his family migrated to America. Greg shares his work and life in California, moving and settling in Texas to become a jiujitsu instructor and now the lead instructor at Renzo Gracie Jiujitsu DFW. Most importantly, Greg shares his love for our Lord and Savior, his two beautiful daughters, and how almost dying impacted his faith.

Professor Greg Hamilton’s Brazilian Jiujitsu (BJJ) journey is a story of dedication, perseverance, and true love for Gracie Jiujitsu. After being very “humbled” the first time he stepped on the mat in California, by his then Professor, who trained under Rickson Gracie, Vander Braga, and at the World Famous Gracie Academy, Professor Greg Hamilton started his training on January 14, 2004, during an era of ruthless and savage jiujitsu. Jimmy asks Greg how he developed his popular lapel submission. Greg shares how his system was named and that you can access this jiujitsu technique on BJJ Fanatics at http://GregHamiltonBJJ.com where athletes can find all five instructional videos.

The guys discuss loyalty, the Covid impacts on training, Greg’s stint working security for the great comedian, Russell Peters, and what the future of his jiujitsu looks like.
