Barbara Pellegrino is a Double Gold Medalist in the English Open at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, whose approach is 'one fight at a time'. Her advice is to just go for it in competing and to keep going! Whilst her journey hasn't always been easy, she has stuck to it and stayed dedicated, and now today she is a Gracie Barra Ambassador.
We talk about starting training during the Covid lockdowns, and doing solo drills, but not the solo drill we may know, solo drills as in miming the moves without a partner! Barbara demonstrates learning moves only a week before a competition, thriving on adrenalin, and pulling off new moves successfully during competition. Take great energy from this episode, Barbara is inspirational.
