Masters Worlds + Open Source BJJ Asheville

What a weekend! By our count 24 locals brought home almost 30 medals from the IBJJF Masters Worlds in Las Vegas. The complete list is below -- let us know if we missed anyone! On the new podcast we recap our favorite matches and shout out a bunch of medalists with black belt Caitlin Huggins. Plus, hear co-host and bronze medalist Lola Funki Munkii interviewed by Mari, one of the kids from Great Grappling. We also interview Bobby McMasters and Amanda McMasters, whose new school in Asheville is an collaborative jiujitsu project called Open Source Jiu-Jitsu. Hear about Bobby founding a BJJ program in Moldova, the Peace Corps, training with Saulo and Xande Ribeiro in the early 2000s and much more.
