Reilly Bodycomb

I am tremendously honored to sit down with one of the most fascinating figures in the grappling world—Reilly Bodycomb. Reilly is a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, a Pan-American Sambo Champion, and an expert in dynamic submission grappling. He teaches at Bay Jiu-Jitsu in San Francisco, where he continues to refine his unique blend of Sambo, Jiu-Jitsu, and wrestling-based strategies. I first discovered Reilly through his incredible 2015 match against the legendary Eddie Cummings, a bout that showcased his aggressive and technical approach to leg locks and positional dominance. Since then, I’ve been a huge admirer of his work, and getting to speak with him today is truly a privilege. In this episode, we dive into Reilly’s martial arts journey, his thoughts on integrating Sambo and Jiu-Jitsu, and his approach to teaching and training. We also discuss his experiences in competition, the evolution of grappling, and how he continues to innovate in a constantly changing sport. Reilly is not only a competitor but a true thinker of the game, and his insights are invaluable for anyone looking to improve their understanding of leg locks, positional control, and effective strategies for modern grappling.
