There are many storylines throughout the world of martial arts, but too few seem to revolve around the positive things that are happening. The Rolling for a Reason podcast shines a light on the individuals in BJJ, MMA and beyond that are making the world a better place.

We want this to be THEIR platform – a place to tell their story, and a place where we can build that evidence that BJJ can be (or even is now) the most compassionate sport in the world. Even though we are a BJJ-based organization, we hope to connect with all the change-makers in martial arts, grappling, and combat sports.
