Description:
From Bouncing in Bars to Building Arkain Grappling in Vietnam: The Journey of Patricio 'Pato' Vergara.

In this episode we sit down with Patricio 'Pato' Vergara, co-founder of Arkain Grappling in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Patricio shares his fascinating journey from being a bouncer in a heavy metal bar in Chile to his passion for Jiu-Jitsu. He discusses his transition from Japanese Ju-Jitsu to BJJ, his experiences living in Hong Kong for romantic reasons, and the challenges and rewards of coaching and owning a gym in Vietnam.

Patricio also touches on the current state of Jiu-Jitsu in Vietnam, the cultural differences, and the importance of building a community through teaching kids.

Pato then delves into his creative ventures, including the concept behind the 'BackTake' Kimonos brand and his recent role as an action director for a Vietnamese movie.
