The Amazing Maia: Ladies Jiu Jitsu Jam Co-Founder & Greatest Training Partner

The first Ladies Jiu Jitsu Jam was awesome, with more than 80 amazing females on the mat! That wouldn't have been possible without my friend and perfect training partner, Maia Matalon. She's definitely someone I want you to get to know on a deeper level: She is a mom, stepmom, badass BJJ black belt and helps run High Noon BJJ in Virginia with her partner Tim Dawson. Maia also worked for several years as a firefighter and paramedic. I look up to her as a jiu jitsu mentor and am grateful to call her my friend. Follow Maia on IG @maiamatalon, High Noon @highnoonbjj and of course give Ladies Jiu Jitsu Jam a follow @ladiesjiujitsujam.    This episode is brought to you by my fabulous sponsors Hips & Grips.  Check out their amazing jiu-jitsu & climbing camps at https://www.hipsandgripscamps.com/.    Get 10% off your next Hips & Grips registration when you use code JENZ.
