    GW3 - EP10: HENRY PIKE
    Oct 9 2026
    Henry Pike started his competitive career as a Black Belt with three losses. He followed them with eight wins.Now he's returning to Grapple Worlds.In Episode 10 of The Grapple Worlds Podcast, Henry Pike joins us ahead of his 78kg Prelims match against Matt MacGuire at Grapple Worlds 3.Like so many experienced Black Belts, Henry's approach to Jiu Jitsu is built around routine, consistency and continuing to show up, including when the results don't initially go your way.His first three competitions at Black Belt ended in losses.Rather than allowing those results to define what came next, Henry kept working.Eight wins followed.Henry already knows what it feels like to win on the Grapple Worlds stage, having competed at GW1 and taken the victory.He was supposed to return for GW2, until what can perhaps best be described as a mid-life-crisis skateboarding injury took him out before the event. 🛹😂This time he's fit, ready and heading back to the mats.But there's more to Henry's relationship with Jiu Jitsu than his own competition record.As one of the hosts of the Dad Jitsu Podcast, Henry talks about the responsibility he feels within the sport and the importance of representing the positive side of the Jiu Jitsu community.We talk about consistency, dealing with losses, building momentum, balancing the different roles Jiu Jitsu plays in his life and what it means to contribute positively to the community around him.Three losses. Eight wins. One unfortunate skateboard. And another opportunity at Grapple Worlds. 🔥Henry Pike is primed and ready for GW3.Get to know Henry before he faces Matt MacGuire.FOLLOW HENRYhttps://www.instagram.com/coachhenrypike/GRAPPLE WORLDS 3Saturday 7 November 2026Stadium MKGet your tickets at grappleworlds.com and follow Grapple Worlds for match announcements and event updates.PROUDLY SPONSORED BYPARKhttps://www.instagram.com/parkbusinessgroup/Zebra Mats UKhttps://www.instagram.com/zebramats_ukGrapplApphttps://www.instagram.com/grapplapp.ioSoulTaker Fightwearhttps://www.instagram.com/soultakerfightwear/Event and Media Structureshttps://www.instagram.com/eventandmediastructures/EHC Sport - Vitamins and Supplements ‘For The Grafters’https://www.instagram.com/ehc.sport/DF Crash Repairshttps://www.instagram.com/dfcrashrepairs/L2i Limited - Award Winning Architectural Glazinghttps://www.instagram.com/l2i_ltdLISTEN & WATCH THE GRAPPLE WORLDS PODCASTApple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | YouTubeTHE GRAPPLE WORLDS PODCAST is a UK BJJ and grappling podcast hosted and produced by Lou Temlett of JIU JITSU LOU https://www.instagram.com/jiu.jitsu.lou/Licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

    GW3 - EP9: MARTINA ZOLA
    Oct 2 2026

    In Episode 9 of The Grapple Worlds Podcast, Black Belt Martina Zola joins us ahead of her Grapple Worlds debut and 65kg Title Match against Melissa Hill at GW3.


    For Martina, the invitation came as both a surprise and an honour.

    She had already been watching Grapple Worlds from afar, including seeing Aino Kartela take the win at GW2, so being invited to step onto the same stage herself was something special.


    And then she discovered there was a 65kg title on the line.


    We talk about the opportunity, preparing to face Melissa Hill and what it means to be trusted with a title match on her first appearance at Grapple Worlds.


    Martina also shares an interesting perspective on the growing visibility of events like Grapple Worlds.


    For competitors, seeing high-level grappling consistently appearing across social media isn't just entertainment, it's helping athletes discover events, follow what's happening in the sport and find new opportunities to compete.


    Now Martina goes from watching Grapple Worlds to becoming part of it.


    Martina Zola. Melissa Hill.

    65kg Title Match.

    One belt waiting at GW3. 🔥


    Get to know Martina before she makes her Grapple Worlds debut at Stadium MK.
