Joel Ellenbecker sits down with Krav Maga Black Belt Instructor Matt Roberts to unpack lessons from the recent Krav Maga Worldwide Black Belt Training Weekend. The two reflect on how seasons of boredom and burnout are often overcome through deeper training, a renewed sense of purpose, and the power of vertical learning—the idea that instead of branching out to new systems, you can dig deeper into what you already know. Matt shares how Krav Maga reignited his passion for training, what Jiu Jitsu taught him about control and composure, and why the new Handgun Expert 1 course is a game-changer for self-defense practitioners.

Key Highlights:

• Vertical Learning vs. Horizontal Learning
• "Fix it With Violence"...and Precision
• Gun Retention and Real-World Violence
• Reigniting Passion Through Immersion
• Instructing is its Own Discipline
