Which BJJ Globetrotters camps have you attended?

 

Which camp has been your favorite so far?

St Barts! Hands Down!

Jay Pages – BJJ Globetrotters Camp in St. Barts

Favorite stories/moments from the camps?

  • Any time Chris Hauters speaks!
  • My first time trying to shower in New Hampshire! The building the showers were in was riddled with spiders and I’m terrified of spiders!  In the ceilings, walls, floors, etc.! One even came out of the drain when I went to shower. I sat outside of the building actually debating whether or not I should shower or just jump in the lake for a bath.

Your favorite class/classes to teach at camp?

Anything choke, wrist lock, or leg lock related.

Anything else you want to add to your profile? 

  • I’m Youtube/Internet famous! (Not Jiu-Jitsu related)
  • I love chick flicks, romcoms, and musicals!
