#123 | Phill Schwartz - Shugyo And The Warrior Teacher

Phill Schwartz created the event Shugyo, a submission only Jiu-Jitsu competition with no time limit and Submission Hunters, a youtube series that follows 10th planet portland Jiu-Jitsu players. Phill is a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu under 10th planet head instructor Eddie Bravo, Phill is the owner/instructor of 10th Planet Portland and an entrepreneur.

In this episode, Alfred Murillo and I talk to Phill about what led him to practice Jiu-Jitsu, putting together Shugyo, bustin’ out of the 9 to 5 and more. Phill has the ingenuity and creative drive that has helped him express himself and tie together his diverse skillset to share with his community. What I love about my conversation with Phill is that he spoke on key points that are a powerful reminder of how we all can pursue our ideal lifestyle with a bit of creative thinking, persistence and a lot of dedicated attention.
