Vladislav Koulikov Sambo & Nogi grappling

[Budo_Jake]

I wrote a blog post about Vladislav Koulikov & his Sambo Jiujitsu fusion instructionals. I've trained with a few Sambo guys and Vlad is the real deal. He's got a solid mix of sambo (that he trained since a child in Russia), wrestling, and Nogi grappling. Some of you guys probably are familiar with one of his moves, the Russian Cowboy.

I understand everything has its origins and I respect the separate disciplines for their contributions completely. But I no longer separate individual disciplines. Its all grappling. And if it is effective, its incorporated. Period.

So yes, I use sambo, judo, wrestling, bjj, and catch. They are all effective forms of grappling. Which is what I love and feel these labels should eventually just dissipate into the history of the modern form. Submission grappling.

Exactly how I feel. Well said!

So you're saying Keep what works and discard the rest? Y'all are sounding like Bruce Lee! But yeah, totally agree.
