Kurt Osiander Announces His New Gym Empire BJJ
Recently the world learned that long time Ralph Gracie Jiu Jitsu black belt and head instructor at Ralph's San Francisco academy, Kurt Osiander had relinquished his duties as an instructor there. Initially being reported as a firing, with Kurt using that terminology during an interview on the Grappling Central Podcast, it appears that this may transition may have been in the works for some time.
Using his popular "Move of the Week" YouTube platform, Kurt most recently announced the opening of Empire BJJ which will be in the Mission District of San Francisco and less than 2 miles from his previous home at Ralph Gracie's. Kurt will be joined by long time fellow Ralph Gracie instructor Jake Scovel in this new business venture. Check out the true "MOVE" of the week video below and afterwards, head over to BJJ Fanatics and get a copy of Kurt's "Fundamentals of a Jiu Jitsu Renegade". After you've spent some time with Kurt via this instructional, you'll be ready to Shut the F up and train!
