Unforgettable Workshop with Luke Griffith & Hanna – Precision, Control, and the Perfect Guillotine!

Yesterday, we had the absolute pleasure of hosting a high-level three-hour workshop with none other than Luke Griffith! Accompanied by his sister, Hanna, a purple belt and No-Gi champion, they broke down three devastating attack sequences with surgical precision. From expertly taking an opponent to the ground to the intricacies of control and securing the back, every detail was covered—leaving no room for escape!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made this event a success—your energy and dedication are what make these workshops truly special. And of course, massive gratitude to Luke and Hanna for traveling to Luxembourg and sharing their expertise.

Oh, and that new guillotine setup? Absolutely next-level!

Hello there!

Today I want to share with you one of the frequent questions I get from people who are unsure about starting a martial art for self-defense: 

Question: Hello, i am confused on which martial art i should practise, I was wondering how effective Grappling /Muay Thai is in a street fight or for self defense?
.
My answer: 
Hello there!

Your question is a bit complex.

I started training Jiu Jitsu at the age of 13. During my teenage years, BJJ helped me on numerous occasions.
At the age of 17 I started my MMA training as well.

What I can tell you is that the use of physical force should be used as a last resort. If you really need to fight, Jiu Jitsu will give you a very strong sense of distance, it will give you the physical strength to defend yourself and possibly immobilise your opponent.

Self-defense goes beyond physical strength and fighting techniques. Self-defense is a decision that must be made in a matter of seconds, because I have to take many factors into account: Where am I, who is confronting me, do I need to engage in combat, do I have to submit in this confrontation? Self-defense is emotional maturity!

What I recommend is that you come for a one-week trial lesson and you'll have the opportunity to experience what hand-to-hand combat is all about. I hope I've answered your question.

If you want to book this week, follow the instructions on our website. www.uplay.lu
Have a great day and don't hesitate to get in touch.

Sincerely,
Leonardo Neves
