We interview James Smart, 2nd degree black belt and owner of Gracie Jiu Jitsu Cape Town and Street Smart.

James tells us where his martial arts background begun and more specifically how he got started in BJJ and combatives. 

We discuss the differences between martial arts, combatives, sparring, competition and violent encounters, both social and criminal.

There’s an awesome story from James’ travels and we chat about his recent entry into sport shooting.

Terrick tells a story about meeting a Gracie.
