Welcome to the Jiu Jitsu Lou Podcast.


Hosted by Lou Temlett, this is a podcast about the people behind Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.


From world champions, black belts and gym owners to white belts, community builders, coaches, entrepreneurs and everyday grapplers, these are honest conversations about the journeys, challenges and experiences that shape life on and off the mats.


The Jiu Jitsu Lou Podcast explores the stories that don't always get told: resilience, confidence, mental health, motherhood, identity, business, belonging, personal growth and the communities that make Brazilian Jiu Jitsu so much more than a sport.


With over 130 episodes and guests from across the UK and around the world, Lou shines a light on the people, projects and ideas helping to grow the grappling community.


Whether you're preparing for your first class, chasing your next belt, running an academy, or simply fascinated by the human side of Jiu Jitsu, you'll find stories, insights and inspiration here.

Real people. Real stories. Real Jiu Jitsu.

    E144: Ju Livesey - Black Belt
    2026/08/29

    Ju Livesey returns to the podcast 90 episodes after we first spoke on Episode 54, this time from Thailand as a Black Belt and co-owner of Carlson Gracie Fight Club Phuket.

    When Ju, Owen and their son Thiago moved from the UK to Thailand, opening another gym wasn't part of the plan. They wanted more time together as a family and an opportunity to build a different life, but after recognising something was missing, curiosity and spontaneity took over and another Jiu Jitsu community began to grow.

    Ju shares the journey of building the gym, creating opportunities for more women to train and continuing to develop the Chaos Camps she originally started because she wanted more women to train together. What began from her own experience moving from Judo into BJJ has developed into a community of women who continue to come back, train together and support each other.

    We also talk about Ju's Black Belt promotion and what the belt means after a lifetime in martial arts. Having already been a Judo Black Belt and regularly competed against higher belts throughout her BJJ journey, the biggest change isn't necessarily the belt itself, but the confidence she now has in her ability and what she can achieve.

    Ju talks openly about the challenges of being an athlete, parent and business owner whilst continually putting herself into situations where she is learning something new. We explore how failure can knock our confidence, the importance of doing difficult things and how deliberately making ourselves uncomfortable can build resilience that reaches far beyond the mats.

    And now Ju is focusing on her own goals. With title fights, Polaris and the European Championships ahead, she wants to win and believes she has put in the work to do it. Ultimately, it comes down to graft, stubbornness, putting yourself in uncomfortable positions and continuing to show up.

    E143: Andy Harris - Black Belt
    2026/08/22

    Andy Harris returns to the podcast almost 100 episodes after we first spoke on Episode 47, this time as a Black Belt and Head Coach of Hybrid BJJ in Plymouth. Andy has been training Jiu Jitsu for over eight years and is a two-time British Open Champion at Brown Belt.

    Andy shares how his own Jiu Jitsu has developed, from understanding and playing to his strengths in competition to the importance of building solid fundamentals throughout the belt journey. We talk about the hours he continues to put on the mats and why coaching and teaching are also an important part of his own learning and progression.

    With a background in Sports Science, coaching and Strength & Conditioning, Andy explains what sport-specific training actually means and how we can train our bodies for the movements we use in Jiu Jitsu. From pushing, pulling, hinging, squatting and carrying to bridging, framing and unilateral movements, we talk about training with purpose rather than simply getting stronger.

    Andy also shares the story of his surprise Black Belt promotion, on the same day that Hybrid BJJ officially became affiliated with ZR. After more than eight years of training, competing and coaching, the promotion brought an emotional recognition of the work he had put in and the people who had helped him along the way.

    Becoming a Black Belt has also given Andy a new sense of freedom in his own Jiu Jitsu. We talk about owning your ability, expressing yourself on the mats and the additional responsibility that comes with being both a Black Belt and Head Coach.

    And ultimately, community is at the heart of what Andy wants to build at Hybrid BJJ. Jiu Jitsu is for everyone, every person is on their own journey and gyms don't need to exist in isolation. Come in, tap hands, roll, learn from each other and leave the egos behind.

    Topics:

    • Black Belt

    • British Open

    • Competition

    • Playing to your strengths

    • Fundamentals

    • Sport-specific training

  • E142: Elisabeth Clay - Black Belt

    E142: Elisabeth Clay - Black Belt
    2026/08/15
    Elisabeth Clay is a Black Belt and one of the most accomplished competitors in Jiu Jitsu, having competed at the highest level of the sport from an incredibly young age. Her journey has taken her from winning ADCC Trials at just 16 years old to continuing to chase World titles today. Elisabeth shares the story behind those early years of competition and the expectations she has always placed on herself. We talk about her journey through the belts, why blue belt remains one of her favourites and how her Jiu Jitsu has continued to evolve as the level of competition, and her own experience, has grown. The conversation explores mindset and Elisabeth's approach to doing difficult things. Whether something takes five minutes or five years, the time is going to pass regardless. We talk about pushing through those moments when you want to stop, trusting the work you've already done and recognising that sometimes you simply have to do it anyway. Elisabeth also shares the reality behind winning ADCC Trials at 16, including being told beforehand that there was little point in entering. What followed became a defining moment in her career, but also demonstrates the determination and self-belief that have continued throughout her journey. We talk about family and motherhood, and how Elisabeth's partner and son have become part of her life in Jiu Jitsu and a source of support around competition. Elisabeth shares her experiences of pregnancy, returning to the mats and finding the balance between being an athlete and being a mum. And ultimately, Elisabeth talks about having high expectations of ourselves whilst also giving ourselves grace. Being hard on yourself can drive progress, whether as an athlete, parent or hobbyist, but there also has to be space to recognise where you are and what you're already doing.
