In this episode Steve White of Flow Submission Grappling (Warrington) shares his journey from rugby league to catch wrestling, MMA and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and how that led him to start his own club. Steve explains the club’s origins as morning "flow" rolls, how it grew into a full timetable, and the values that shape its culture.
He outlines his coaching approach — strict fundamentals, structured drilling, and progressively increasing resistance — and explains how comp classes, position-focused weeks (attack then defense), and cross-training build well-rounded grapplers. Steve emphasizes hard work, competitiveness, and community as the gym’s core tenets.
The episode also covers class formats (mornings, comp drilling, rounds), his favorite submissions (arm guillotine, straight ankle lock, and the muffler), challenges balancing coaching with family life, and plans to grow the club while maintaining quality coaching and culture. He finishes with thanks to his members, coaches, and family for their support.
