#35 - Ricardo Migliarese - How to Maneuver Through Life

Ricardo Migliarese is the co-owner and head instructor at Balance Studios MMA in Philadelphia. Ricardo is a 5th Degree Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu under the legendary Relson Gracie.

On this podcast, Ricardo Migliarese and I discuss:

• Why his late father taught him the game of chess at an early age to teach him the art of maneuvering.
• How his father taught him and his brother Phil that hate is derived from ignorance and why to never shy away from anything that is going to teach him a lesson.
• Why the most important person we should be competing with on and off the jiu jitsu mat is the person we were yesterday.
• How he and his brother Phil met Steve Maxwell and how they started the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu scene in Philadelphia.
• The lessons he learned from moving to Los Angeles to train directly under the Gracie family.
