episode The Hidden Safety Crisis in Martial Arts Gyms | Protecting Kids & Women artwork

The Hidden Safety Crisis in Martial Arts Gyms | Protecting Kids & Women

Most martial arts gyms assume they’re safe, but many are missing critical protections for kids and women. In this eye-opening episode, black belt Milton Campis exposes a hidden safety crisis inside martial arts and jiu-jitsu gyms, and explains what must change. After seeing repeated stories of misconduct, unsafe environments, and ignored warning signs, Milton created Academy Safe, a system designed to make background checks, health protocols, and safety standards the norm, not the exception. We discuss real-world examples of how abuse and negligence slip through the cracks, and more importantly, a clear, practical framework that gym owners, coaches, parents, and students can use right now. In this episode, you’ll learn: * The 8 core safety measures every martial arts school must have * How to spot red flags in unsafe or irresponsible gyms * How to talk to kids and training partners about safety, honestly, and clearly * The legal and moral responsibility of background screening * How raising standards can transform martial arts into a true community of trust Whether you’re a parent choosing a gym, a coach running a school, or a practitioner who wants a safer training environment, this conversation matters. This isn’t about fear; it’s about leadership, accountability, and protecting the people who trust us most. ▶️ Hit play and be part of the movement making martial arts safer for everyone.

episode Why Gym Culture Matters More Than Technique artwork

Why Gym Culture Matters More Than Technique

In this episode of Forever White Belt, I sit down with Nick Salles, a black belt under Mikey Musumeci and co-owner of Movement Art Academy alongside Daniel Maira. Nick shares his journey through jiu-jitsu with a deep focus on something that often gets overlooked: culture. We dive into why a positive gym environment is critical for learning, long-term growth, and athlete development—and how the right culture can unlock a student’s true potential. This conversation goes beyond techniques and belts. Nick breaks down his philosophy on training, coaching, and creating an environment where people actually want to show up, stay consistent, and improve over time. His approach to jiu-jitsu is thoughtful, intentional, and refreshingly grounded. On a personal note, this was one of those special episodes where you instantly click with someone. It was a genuine pleasure getting to know Nick, and I already know I’ll be learning a lot more from him in the future. This is absolutely an episode you’ll want to re-listen to, pause, and take notes on. It’s packed with essential insights and honestly feels more like a masterclass in jiu-jitsu philosophy than a typical podcast episode. If you’re a coach, academy owner, or practitioner who cares about training for the long game, this one’s for you.
