In this episode of the Emerald Grappling Podcast, Aaron is joined by Shane Sweeney, the Head Coach of PSF Limerick and a purple belt under the legendary Heath Pedigo. As an IBJJF No-Gi World Champion and AJP Gi World Champion, Shane has medalled at nearly every major international tournament. He catches us up on his transition from a high-level rugby background into Jiu Jitsu.We discuss Shane’s time training at the world-renowned Pedigo Submission Fighting headquarters in Mt. Vernon, Illinois. He takes us behind the scenes of the "Daisy Fresh" laundromat, describing the unique team spirit that the cameras didn't always catch. Our conversation delves into the "PSF Surge" currently taking over Ireland and Shane’s mission to dismantle the "lone wolf" mentality often found in the BJJ community. He explains how he is implementing field-sport camaraderie at PSF Limerick, prioritising the team trophy over individual glory, and why building a "team-first" culture is the key to long-term success. He also highlights the massive impact of having a world-class black belt like Josh Murdock in the room to sharpen the daily intensity of the Irish scene.Finally, Shane shares his five-year vision for PSF Limerick and the Irish competitive landscape, offering essential advice for listeners on why embracing a team-centric mindset is the ultimate "cheat code" for reaching the top of the podium.🟢 FOLLOW SHANE ON INSTAGRAM⁠Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/runningbacktopsf/----------------------------------------------------------------------------🟢 FOLLOW THE LIMERICK SLIDE BYInstagram → https://www.instagram.com/psflimerickcity/Linktree → https://linktr.ee/psflimerickcity?utm_source=linktree_profile_share&ltsid=9cec66e0-882a-4a8f-84ac-d82b743d8616 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------🟢 FOLLOW LAKELAND JIU JITSUFacebook → https://www.facebook.com/LakelandJiuJitsuInstagram → https://www.instagram.com/lakelandjiujitsu/Website → https://lakelandjiujitsu.eu----------------------------------------------------------------------------🟢 FOLLOW EMERALD GRAPPLINGInstagram → instagram.com/emeraldgrapplingTikTok → tiktok.com/@emeraldgrappling👍 Like, Share & Subscribe for more Irish Jiu-Jitsu conversations!#EmeraldGrapplingPodcast #ShaneSweeney #DaisyFresh #PSFLimerick #PedigoSubmissionFighting #HeathPedigo #IrishBJJ #BJJIreland #BJJ #JiuJitsu #Grappling #NoGi #BJJWorldChampion #LimerickBJJ #JiuJitsuLifestyle #BJJTraining #GrappleFest #PSF #TheLimerickSlideBy #RugbyToBJJ #BJJRecovery #IBJJF #AJP #NoGiWorlds #IrishGrappling #BJJCommunity #MartialArtsPodcast #BJJCompetition #SubmissionGrappling #BJJCoach
