Instructionals for Social Good.

This is the next phase of what we’re building.

We’ve brought in world class instructors like Megumi Ishikawa, Hannah Martin, Isa Friedlander, and Dr. Christopher Round to create technical instruction that actually transfers to competition.

No filler. No recycled content. Just systems, timing, and decision making that hold up under pressure.

Every purchase does two things:
– Gives you real, usable judo
– Directly supports athletes working toward the 2028 Olympic Games through MASTERs

We’re not separating development from mission. They’re the same thing.

If you’re going to invest in instruction, it should matter.

Fundamental Trips for Judo with Isa Friedlander is now LIVE and available for purchase!

Isa is a US Senior National Judo Champion, BJJ brown belt under Murillo Santana, and 2nd place finisher at the 2026 IBJJF Pan American Championships.

This is a quick and to the point instructional on four techniques that you’ll be able to swiftly add to your game:

Sasae
Ouchi
Kouchi
Kosoto

And more importantly, how to combine them.

No filler. Just the pieces you use.

We are incredibly thankful for the work done by our Mental Performance Coach Erin Herle for the athletes in the MASTERs Athletes Fellows program. She plays a critical role in our athlete fellows bring their authentic selves to the mat. Research demonstrates that authenticity and agency is linked to superior performances. Coach Erin helps our athletes unlock their best performances.
