24.01.2022 Go for it Jake! #AET #Community

23.01.2022 One of my Jiu Jitsu heroes has received his 7th degree and red/black belt. This fellow is one of the warriors I admire the most. Congratulations Professor!

23.01.2022 Jan 3rd and Jan 10th @ 1pm - our two teenage juggernauts Jess and Talitha are running free jits sessions for teenagers. Under supervision of our Head coach (AET 1st Degree Black Belt) Jess will take participants through a series of moves and then have some fun rolls at the end. Its 100% free no strings drop in and have a train (experienced or beginners welcome. YOU MUST book - Spots Limited! (STANDARD Covid safe practices in place including temp checks)

23.01.2022 Day 3 100 Push ups / Bas Rounds / KB Swings And an awesome quick Zoom catchup with @johncampbell_01 the legend behind Ballarat’s best MMA School @infinitemma_ballarat (why would you train anywhere else in 3350?!) to fine tune a few standup fundamentals. #Done #PrevailMMA #Empowered #ExtremeOwnership #Alwaysastudent Infinite MMA John M Campbell

22.01.2022 Happy birthday open mat rolls to this legend. She is an awesome training partner and mate and sparkles just like a magic unicorn! Happy Birthday Legend! @ana.erceg_

21.01.2022 Back when training wasn’t illegal. miss our training brother.

20.01.2022 Not the news we were hoping for from the State Government yesterday. There is not really a set timeline for reopening. This is both frustrating and disappointing. But with cases decreasing, we are still optimistic we will be able to return to our club soon. Life, just like jiu jitsu, can put pressures on us in the most unexpected of ways. And in life (just like jiu jitsu) we need to shift our angle, form our plan, find our space, adapt and overcome. We REALLY miss our mem...bership community and look forward to sharing the journey again with you all once we are able to. Take care, stay safe, smile and ... be kind to yourself & others. Coach. #AustralianELiteTeam #PrevailMMA #Empowered2Prevail

19.01.2022 As all our formal classes are now done we wanted to take a moment to wish everyone a safe and happy Christmas and New Year. May you find kindness and adventure awaiting you in 2021. Classes resume 2nd January, New trial Teen Jiu Jitsu sessions will be running in January along with "The Unwanted Hug" a short afternoon intensive that teaches you how to protect your personal boundaries, understand and deal with the fear / adrenaline stress response. 2021 will also see our First Responders free jiu jitsu classes for current / former ADF, Police, Fire, Ambulance and Nurses. Take care. #PrevailMMA #australianeliteteam #ADFA #Jits #Empowered2Prevail #GeelongBusiness #GeelongCommunity #BlackBelt

19.01.2022 Not unexpected but still disappointing...

18.01.2022 We are back... Sort of. All sessions must be booked in advance and things will be a little different for a while. All current members will be contacted directly. #PrevailCombatives #PrevailMMA #AustralianEliteTeam #Jits #BJJ

17.01.2022 Awesome session yesterday at the brown belt / black belt rolls... wait what does that actually mean? Check out the second picture. After taking this photo and thanking all the awesome monsters on the mat I went into the change room leaned against the wall, sank down and stayed there for 15 minutes. Completely wiped out. When every single person on the mat can catch you out or hold you to account this is what it looks and feels like. I'm rolling well at the minute but I have no idea how my coach rolls these monsters every day (keeping everyone in check) but I love that it makes me want to be better and continue to push. Little fish in a big pond. Australian Elite Team.

17.01.2022 Congratulations to Georgia on most improved student award for her work in MMA Class and to Neil for most outstanding student of the year. More to come - but thanks to all who shared a meal and laughter together tonight. #jiujitsulifestyle #Family #Community #Family

16.01.2022 Lucy and Petra with AET Head Coach Nino. Was awesome to see the girls join in the hardcore comp rounds and leave it all on the mat. Great job crew! #AET4Life

16.01.2022 Don’t know about you guys but I’m on autopilot right now so when I get the question R U OK? I answer on auto pilot. Take a second to reframe the question and all of a sudden you have to think about the answer a little more. #MateCheck #RUOk #Prevail #Community #Geelong

16.01.2022 Right now I should be in Vegas competing at the world masters - and road tripping with a couple really good mates. Instead We are in this funny covid world. Well it can’t touch the memories. Vegas Workd Masters in 2016 in my first year as a black belt will always be an epic adventure - couldn’t have shared it with better people than these legends from @renegade.mma #PrevailMMA #AustralianEliteTeam #AET #BlackBeltNewbie #Empowered2Prevail

15.01.2022 Wise words from John Danaher here. What are you doing to take care of yourself?

14.01.2022 Congratulations on the third stripe to this old man strong legend. James is constantly training, rolling, sharing and drilling. He is an integral part of this community and team. Well done legend let's keep kicking goals! Also looking flash in his official old man gear! @oldmanstrengthofficial #oldmanstrong #oldmanstrength #Jits #MatMonster #PrevailMMA #AET

13.01.2022 Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads out there. Thanks @orchid_and_co for this amazing breakfast hamper. Breakfast, LEGO (from my big kids) and coffee - can’t ask for more than that. Although we are all apart, enjoy your day! . . . #GeelongBusiness #Support #Family #FathersDay #Prevail #Geelong #MartialArts #JiuJitsu #Family

13.01.2022 Congratulations to Jake on his big UFC win today! #AET #DadsArmy #Aussie #BlackBelt

12.01.2022 BEST. NEWS. EVER! Read coach Ninos's message below :D #AET #australianeliteteam #Jits #JiuJitsu

11.01.2022 WE ARE BACK! You will be as happy as we are. From Tuesday 24th November Jiu JItsu classes resume at Prevail MMA. Time to return to the pursuit of being Empowered to Prevail! Details and a class timetable will be posted over the weekend.

11.01.2022 Empowered to Prevail- means that we adapt and overcome the adversity in our lives. It means we push forward. There will be challenges and situations in your life that you will have little or no control over. The resilience we build whilst we get pushed, challenged, uncomfortable both physically and mentally - can make all the difference... If this is a journey you'd be interested in taking with us (once Covid-19 restrictions are lifted) please shoot us a message and lets start a conversation today about what becoming empowered might mean to you... #BJJ #BlackBelt #AustralianEliteTeam #PrevailCombatives #PrevailMMA

11.01.2022 It’s you vs you - end of story. You get nothing but cheering from us. #YouAreWorthIt #MartialArts #BlackBelt #BJJ #PrevailCombatives #SelfDefence #AdrenalinStressTraining #Community #GeelongBusiness

11.01.2022 Well that didn't last long. In line with Government requirements we are closed until at least mid September. Like all small businesses we are feeling it both financially and in terms of our community. But lets look out for each other, be kind and persevere. Take care, Coach.

10.01.2022 A few presents and some kind words from my students yesterday left me with a big smile and feeling very proud of what everyone has achieved this year - despite the hurdles. Congratulations to @georgiaathorne on most improved student award for her work in MMA Class and to @oldman_rolling for most outstanding student of the year after putting in some exceptional efforts. Thanks to all who shared a meal and laughter together tonight. #jiujitsulifestyle #Family #Community #Family

09.01.2022 Little trip down memory lane to help keep the motivation up. First picture is some of the awesome women from E2P in 2017 and Ana from Legend's MMA. Second pic is my team mates (at the time) and I back in 2006 - I was a blue belt. Everyone in that picture is now a black belt. At the time we were probably the most active competitors at the club.

09.01.2022 This empowered crew catching up for a walk . This lockdown has been tough on businesses and the communities they nurture and support. One positive is that there is nothing to stop us reaching out to each other and share a g’day or how are you doing?. We are all aching to get back to training - but until we can do that - let’s be kind to each other and ourselves. . . . #PrevailMMA #Empowered2Prevail #PrevailCombatives #AET #AustralianEliteTeam #MartialArts #BlackBelt #Jits #SelfDefence #Geelong #GeelongBusiness #GeelongCommunity

08.01.2022 Back in 2007 teaching Shootfighting as a 2nd Degree Black Belt. Regardless of the style - Shootfighting, BJJ or Adrenalin Stress Training I have been using my martial arts journey to engage with and empower people for a long time. #Empowered2Prevail #PrevailCombatives #BJJ #BlackBelts #australianeliteteam #Community #GeelongBusiness

08.01.2022 Working with the Character Mentoring Cell - Australian Defence Force Academy in Queensland's Tin Can Bay at last years Leadership Challenge 3 was a fantastic experience on a personal and professional level. Excellent operators that were ready and willing to pressure test their crew in a resilience stand that left most exhausted but with not just a sense of confidence but achievement as well. Resilience is something we are all having tested now. Although auditory exclusion ...is less of a problem than in the "SHED" we find ourselves stretch and made uncomfortable by other factors outside our control. We need to acknowledge the struggle and this will lead to us adapting and from there we will overcome. To my friends and colleuges in the martial arts industry - hang in there, you have got this. To my students - I will see you soon. Oh and by the way - we just ticked over 500 likes on this page , thanks for watching, reading and following us. See you on the mat. Coach out. #Prevail #EMpowered2Prevail #PrevailMMA #AustralianEliteTeam #AdrenalinStressTraining #StressTest #HardYards #Resilience #GeelongBusiness #Geelong #Community #BJJ #JiuJitsu

08.01.2022 Looking forward to having all our members back on the mat and especially watching Jess progress her martial arts journey on her way to becoming a future world champion (her old dad Neil isn't to bad either I suppose :D ) #Notlong #PrevailMMA #AustralianEliteTeam #BJJ #SelfDefence #AdrenalinStressTraining #Community #YourWorthIt #Geelong #GeelongBusiness #HangingInThere #NotLong #G4CAus

08.01.2022 Now more than ever we need to make sure we are equipping our kids with the skills & abilities (both verbal and physical) to ensure they do not become a victim OR A BULLY. An OECD global study has found Australian kids are more likely than ever to experience bullying. https://www.news.com.au///9edee1ab2984b9b49a326eaf8d48d5d0

07.01.2022 Today I was out and about when a chap decided that it would be a good idea to chase me around multiple streets leaning on his horn, swerving, tailgating and hanging out his windows whilst gesturing wildly at me. As my initial adrenaline response kicked in I forced myself to breathe calmly, continue to drive safely and asses my options. I'd be lying if I said the instinct to pull the vehicle over and have a "discussion" wasn't there. It was most certainly there and then some...... However a thought occurred to me. Maybe he is having a bad day, like, a really bad day. One that quite literally had him at the edge of his threshold of control. There would be no way to verbally de-escalate this guy. When someone is acting out in such a low brain (being the loss of fine motor skills, fight or flight is kicked in and the rage & aggression is is overload) there is no way to return him to high brain function in a timely manner (re-engage fine motor skills, logic and reasoning abilities). If I got out of my car a physical confrontation would be the most likely outcome. Given that I had no control over him I decided to take control of the person I could - ME. I decided to keep my current course of action and gather as many details as I could so I could simply report the matter. I also slowed down driving more slowly to reduce the risk to him and others around us. After driving down various streets he appeared to give up and I headed across town and reported the matter as required. We can't control everything that is going to happen to us but we can control how we respond to it. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is let it go & walk away... #Empowered2Prevail #PrevailMMA #AustralianEliteTeam #BJJ #Jits #PrevailCombatives #BlackBelt

07.01.2022 @lucindadawn working hard on Saturday morning comp rounds. Lucy has been turning up and rolling the extra sessions- usually outsized and powered relying on resilience, tenacity and technical jiu jitsu to hold her own during these training sessions. Turning up and doing the work is 3/4 of the path forward. Keep up the good work Lucy - moving like a monster! #EmpoweredWoman #Empowered2Prevail #JiuJitsu #PrevailMMA #AET #Armbar #Choke #Sweep #Geelong #GeelongCommunity

06.01.2022 Today is the 4th Birthday of my school PrevailMMA (Empowered2Prevail) . Pretty mixed emotions. Instead of growing and improving my club we are clinging on hoping the government allows us to actually open our doors again sometime soon. Nothing I would rather be doing than spending the night on the mats with my students - but it's not to be. However I'm really quite pleased and proud of how resilient and empowered my students are in coping, encouraging each other and continuing to move forward in their lives despite the inconvenience of any restrictions. After all- that's what EMPOWERED looks like Australian Elite TeamPrevail Jiu Jitsu & MMA Geelong Prevail MMA Training Page Prevail MMA - Video Techniques, Advice & Concepts TRIAL #Jits #BlackBelt #Community Australian Elite Team

06.01.2022 Very cool gift from one of my students. Made out of an old record! So cool! Thanks @melosmnv it even looks like me :D Hang in there everyone - hopefully we know more over the weekend and can plan our return. #Empowered2Prevail #AustralianEliteTeam

05.01.2022 International Women's Day Taking a moment to acknowledge the original "trail Blazers" for Prevail MMA - my first three students were fierce and powerful women who are still on the journey today. Have a read of this article by the infinitely talented Petra Brown which is both alarming and amazing at the same time (link below). http://petrabrown.me/anna-van-schurman-educational.../ To all the women in my life - warriors and trail blazers all. You are amazing.

04.01.2022 Ready for the return... Geelong’s only Australian Elite Team Affiliate Academy. Train under an AET Black Belt. Engage Inspire Empower Prevail.

04.01.2022 Happy Birthday to PrevailMMA legend and Legacy Member @lucindadawn Awesome birthday rolls at comp rounds. #Aet #Empowered2Prevail #PrevailMMA #Jits ##Community #Geelong

04.01.2022 You can lose what you buy, but you can't lose something that you can create. People ask if I'm worried about the future of martial arts gyms in Victoria. Those... who work hard to make it to the top of a mountain, didnt fall there. Give me a few mats under a tree and 1 person willing... and I'll create it again. #We #Are #Coming #Back #Strong #Lions #Team #Family #Unity #Australianeliteteam #Aet4life -ninos

02.01.2022 Great night tonight as people achieved goals and pushed themselves through their comfort zones. Outstanding. This is what it means to be empowered to prevail. Congratulations to everyone who striped up - you are warriors all!! #Empowered2Prevail #australianeliteteam #Jits #GeelongBusiness #Community #BlackBelt #PrevailMMA #JiuJitsu

01.01.2022 My old black belt was really starting to fall apart - a great friend and training partner managed to procure this unique and limited edition AP belt for me. It is an amazing belt that reflects the full BJJ journey. I love it. What a gift :D . . . #Geelong #BlackBelt #BJJ #AET #AustralianEliteTeam #PrevailMMA #Empowered2Prevail @albinoandpreto #Evenbetterinreallife
