I spoke with Robert Degle, a BJJ Black Belt from New York who trains under John Danaher and is also a philosophy major. We discuss how he started BJJ in the blue basement with Danaher, His start with philosophy and existentialism and how this led to him pursuing an academic career with a focus on American pragmatism and Wittgenstein.
We then explore how this can influence grappling training in terms of learning, competition, seeking the truth using logic, paying attention, and the importance of persuasion.
