Why Every Serious Entrepreneur Should Train Jiu Jitsu | Moshe Popack

15 years on the mat at Valente Brothers Jiu Jitsu in Miami, and the lessons keep coming. In this vlog, Moshe Popack shares what daily training has taught him about staying calm under pressure, doing the right thing when it costs you, and why the black belt is a mental and spiritual journey before it’s a physical one.

The principles of jiu jitsu rectitude, humility, and trusting the process apply to every deal, every relationship, and every moment when life is coming at you from all directions.

I also talk about:
◾️ Why humility and patience matter in training
◾️Learning to stay calm under pressure
◾️ Finding a flow state in uncomfortable situations
◾️How breath and presence create opportunity
◾️ The connection among Jiu-Jitsu, parenting, and leadership
◾️Overcoming fear, claustrophobia, and mental resistance
◾️Why Jiu-Jitsu is a lifelong, holistic practice

This practice affects everything for me, including the food I eat, the way I think, my spiritual connection, and how I show up for my family and at work. It’s not about strength against strength. It’s about staying present long enough to find the opening.

Even my two-year-old has started training because I truly believe these principles help shape stronger, calmer, and more grounded human beings.
