Ida Floisvik & Junny Ocasio: Bonus Show!
b'BONUS episode! Two interviews with elite level competitors, including Norwegian #jiujitsu artist Ida Fl\\xf8isvik, the reigning IBJJF New York Open black belt Absolute champion and Edwin "Junny" Ocasio of Unity BJJ, one of the best purple belt jiujitsu #athletes competing today. We\'re excited to bring you these interviews, and we\'re going to continue to focus on the Carolinas and beyond, bringing the best folks we can find on the show to support East Coast BJJ. \\n\\n\\nNorwegian Ida Fl\\xf8isvik is the reigning New York Open black belt Absolute champion, has a fascinating means to fund her training, and has an awesome Viking sword. The Roger Gracie black belt talked to Lourdes after training at Renzo Gracie Manhattan about her training, her kids classes, and much more! \\n\\nEdwin "Junny" Ocasio has won most of the IBJJF open tournaments and has his sights on a Mundial gold medal this year. He talked to Jeff about the importance of hard training, the importance of drilling, his training partners at Unity BJJ, and fighting for millimeters -- not inches -- in the gym and in competitions. He also gives his thoughts on cross-training, tells us about Unity\'s tough pro training and the toughest match he\'s had in competition -- as well as the best advice he\'s received from Murilo Santana. Also: we ask whether he\'d be interested in a Toro Cup match, and ... well, just listen.\\n\\nThanks as always to our sponsors, US Grappling, Toro BJJ, and Cageside Fight Co.!
