About Grapplers Win

Hi, hello. I’m Eric, and I’m the person behind Grapplers.win (or is it Grapplers Win?).

I write about jiu-jitsu both as a sport and as a hobby. Mostly, I am using this space to be a back up for my work at

You can find discussion of education, the jiu-jitsu community as a whole, and the professional side of the sport. If you’re curious what makes me eligible to talk about these topics, I’m a PhD student doing educational research and have been involved with the grappling / jiu-jitsu community for around a decade. I think that’s more than enough qualification.

This is a free newsletter so if you like my work, please just share it and send me boxes of Cheez-Its on Blue Sky instead.
