A military veteran, former personal bodyguard, and bouncer at Joe Rogan’s iconic Comedy Mothership, Sal has spent years protecting people—from backstage corridors to crowded venues—and now channels that same protective instinct into building stronger, more resilient martial artists.Outside of teaching and leadership, Sal is also an entrepreneur, founding the Jiu-Jitsu apparel brand Pronoia with his business partner Fred. They created this brand to inspire athletes who choose optimism in the face of adversity.At Simpleman Martial Arts, Sal’s mission is to honor the legacy of the owners before him while evolving the academy into a home where beginners feel welcome, competitors are sharpened, and every student leaves more confident than they arrived.Whether he’s coaching fundamentals or preparing fighters for competition, Sal leads with humility, humor, and hard-earned experience. His journey—from military service to bouncing at one of the most famous comedy clubs in the world—has shaped a leadership style built on loyalty, toughness, and unwavering respect.Filmed & Produced by @allywolskiMerch:https://simplemanma.myshopify.comMarek Health:🥼https://marekhealth.com Get a 10% discount use code SIMPLEMANMASF Supplementsuse promo code "SIMPLEMAN" at check out to receive a 15% discount "BE KIND OR ELSE!"https://masfsupplements.com@masf_supplements  Pronoia:https://www.pronoiabjj.com/Use promocode SIMPLEMAN for 10% off your entire order at checkout@pronoiabjjSimpleman instagram:@thesimplemanpodcast  Carne Jerky:@carnejerky_   NEW TikTok:@therealsimplemanpodcastMarekhealth:🥼 https://marekhealth.com/simpleman Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SimpleManPodc...00:00:00 Intro00:02:21 IVF Baby00:03:46 Sal's Time in the Military00:06:07 Sal Moves to Austin00:08:54 B-Team in the Beginning00:11:43 Pronoia00:13:49 Sal Training in the Middle East00:14:41 Sal Could Beat Nicky in Jiu Jitsu00:15:44 Sal Applies to B-Team00:17:17 Thank You Joe Rogan00:19:33 Our Sponsors00:23:31 Thank You Joe Rogan00:25:25 Dana White00:25:55 Business Partner00:26:22 Is Pronoia Real?00:26:35 Fundamentals Program00:26:50 How'd We Become Business Partners?00:30:10 Fundies is a Party00:31:37 Come Train with Us!00:32:28 John Danaher at SMMA00:37:00 When Ethan Moved to Renzo's00:37:27 Damien's Start in BJJ00:40:19 Omni John00:42:43 Gordon Tips Everyone but Sal00:43:35 Is Sal the Real Professor?00:51:54 Sal Apologizes00:53:22 Kody & Sal00:59:30 Kid's Class01:02:17 Wake Surfing01:05:00 Simple Band01:09:42 Future Guests01:10:12 Whole Carton of Cigarettes01:11:02 Outro01:11:38 Simple Band Covers Revival by Zach Bryan
