Travis Stevens

My name is Travis Stevens and I have been grappling for most of my life in one way or another. The purpose of this channel is to teach everyone the concepts that helped me go from an average teenage kid to the Olympic Podium in Judo! I have grappled at the highest levels being a 3x United States Judo Olympian for the 81kg weight class. I'm also a BJJ black belt under Renzo Gracie and John Danaher! I pride myself on honesty and being straightforward. I have a very direct way of teaching. You won't find any really flashy moves on my channel that look good but don’t work when your training. I only show and display techniques that I have either been caught in or have caught people in consistently. Tricks are nice to have but let's build a strong foundation of grappling so we can compete with anyone in the world.
