The Impaired Grappler

Phillip Grapsas Black Belt under Pedro Sauer. Impaired with arthritis I do what it takes to stay on the mats as Stagnation Leads to Suffering. #impairedgrappling

My aim is to share my story as I work to become The Repaired Grappler in a natural way. 

I hope to inspire others to keep mobile using Gracie Jiu-Jitsu with a self defence mindset to help them find ways to grapple with impairments, metaphorically and literally.

John is one of Australia's best and most decorated endurance athletes, known primarily for his long distance swimming.

He is a true Aussie legend and a bit of a character.

We talk about his love of coffee, travel, breathing, flow state, his love of cold over the heat, issues he had in his last race, dealing with the darkness, always experimenting with new techniques, scariest and most majestic encounters with nature including the Loch Ness Monster, injuries, his boxing match and diet.

Check out his website for his list of achievements, his swim coaching and general info.
