Doing Jiu Jitsu is hard. Probably one of the hardest things you can do, especially as a hobby. Surviving White Belt is meant to help you get started, stay motivated and survive the hardest part of every jiu jitsu career - the time as a white belt. The goal of this podcast is to share stories and experiences of different individuals who have lived through the struggle, so that you realize you're not alone and that staying on the path is worth it.

    Ep. 13: Frankie Lopez - B-Team
    May 5 2025

    In this episode I sit down with Frankie Lopez, from B-Team Jiu Jitsu in Austin, Texas. Frankie shares how he started training with the Danaher Death Squad (DDS) in Puerto Rico as a white belt, what it was like transitioning into the B-Team after the DDS split, and how being the smallest guy on the mat shaped his style.

    We talk wrestling, competition mindset, and how Frankie's Jiu Jitsu evolved from a leg lock-heavy guard game to wrestling-focused offense. Plus, he opens up about his European seminar tour across Slovenia, Austria, and Spain, sharing techniques and building community across the no-gi scene.

    Whether you're a new white belt, a smaller grappler trying to survive big rolls, or just a fan of real stories from the mats — this one’s packed with insights, laughs, and just enough chaos.
