Welcome Home!!
Come take a seat.
First and foremost, thank you for coming. I’m excited to get to interact with you through my articles and blogs. My hope is that I can help you either through these free articles or working with you specifically on a one on one basis.
How will this work?
I’ll be releasing four to six blog posts during the month under Choke Point Chronicles. The articles will be a mix of written or video content covering technique reviews, tips, training approach, and my thoughts and opinions on the state of Jiu-Jitsu.
While anyone can and will get something out of my articles and posts, I do have a soft spot for White and Blue Belts. In my opinion, the often most forgotten demographic of a most Jiu-Jitsu academy.
The Benefits:
Fundamental Guidance - Beginner’s Mindset and Tips.
Training Approach - All Levels Approach To Enjoy Jiu-Jitsu.
Video Reviews - Comp Breakdown Footage.
A bit about me..
My name is David Figueroa-Martinez.
I am a bit of a nerd and a massive introvert. My Kindle is never far from me and I have always loved expressing myself through the arts. I’m a Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt out of San Diego and have been running Gracie La Mesa’s morning program since 2021.
At the end of the day, I just love helping people and will do so whenever I have the opportunity.
Some of my Jiu-Jitsu highlights..
Released White Belt Handbook in 2014.
Received my Black Belt in 2021.
Currently running the Gracie La Mesa Morning program.
Bjj Mental Models veteran: Ep 243 and 297.
Aaand finally, your free gift!

I hope you enjoy,
-David Figueroa-Martinez
