When Andy’s longtime friend and fighting partner Conrad Roberts approached us to create a video for Summit Grappling Academy, it quickly became clear this was more than a simple film project. There was a powerful story at the heart of Summit Grappling Academy - one that reflected years of dedication, resilience, and community, and it deserved to be told as a full documentary.
Summit Grappling Academy began with humble roots, operating out of a small garage with just a handful of members. Over time, it has grown into a professional, purpose-built jiu-jitsu academy, producing athletes capable of competing at the highest level. The documentary charts this evolution, capturing both the growth of the academy and the people who helped build it. Along the way, it features insights from the founder Conrad Roberts, and key members, including Hayley Curtis, Gianni Fabrizio, Sean Coates, and Joe Kane.
