I am Lee Wright, Connection Rio sponsored athlete, BJJ player, personal trainer and generally addicted to any form of intense exercise! This is my blog about my travels to the USA and Brazil training and competing in BJJ. I am traveling to South Carolina in October 2013 to train with my good friend and Gordo Jiu-jitsu black belt Jeremy Arel then going to Brazil to train at Gordo`s main academy in Rio. I have spent a lot of time in Rio training and I hope to be able to share my experiences with anyone looking to do a similar thing! I am regular competitor on the UK circuit having competed in over 20 plus tournaments. I hope to be able coach my own team one day to and pass on the knowledge I have gained traveling the world to pursue BJJ.
