They are joined by the innovative Ollie Kelly, the founder of the Matador app - a groundbreaking platform for combat sports seminars. Ollie introduces himself and his journey from judo in French schools to discovering jiu-jitsu through the lens of the UFC. His experiences translate into the creation of Matador, designed to simplify and enhance seminar organization for athletes and enthusiasts alike.

Join Ollie as he recounts his personal combat sports journey, from traditional sports in France to embracing jiu-jitsu at 30, and how these experiences shaped the Matador app, described as "Tinder for seminars".

Ollie discusses the exciting future of the Matador app, the obstacles he's overcome, and the passionate journey of making jiu-jitsu accessible to all.

Whether you're a jiu-jitsu practitioner, a fan of combat sports, or just curious about the latest innovations in the sports community, this episode is a must-listen.
