Grappling Day... "Get Your Gi On"

Judo Gene “the Godfather of Grappling” LeBell—Hollywood stuntman, pro wrestler, submission wizard—and Benny “The Jet” Urquidez—eight-time world champ, master kicker, guy who could fight in any ring on the planet.

Hanging out with both at the same time was wild. On one side you got Gene, cracking jokes, showing a chokehold that could put a bull to sleep. On the other, Benny—serious, respectful, lightning-fast even in casual movement. Two legends, two totally different styles, same warrior spirit.

Sensei Boggs — Goshin Karate & Judo Academy, Scottsdale, Arizona

People think a dojo is about fighting.
They are wrong.

A dojo is about learning what you become when nobody is clapping, nobody is watching, and nobody is coming to save you.

I have seen strong men break because they never learned stillness.

I have seen quiet students become unshakable because they learned patience before power.
At Goshin Karate & Judo Academy, we do not teach people to win arguments. We teach them to stop needing them.

This book is not about karate.

It is about life standing in front of you like an opponent you cannot avoid.

And bowing anyway.

— Sensei Boggs
“Mr. Miyagi of Scottsdale”
