Welcome to the Martial Arts Journey YouTube network!
My name is Rokas. I’m a Lithuanian guy that trained Aikido for 14 years, 7 of them running a professional Aikido Dojo up until eventually I realized that Aikido does not meet what it guarantees.
Lead by this realization I decided to make a daring action to close my Aikido Dojo as well as transfer to Portland, Oregon for six months to start training MMA at the renowned Straight Blast Gym Headquarters under head train Matt Thornton.
After 6 months extensive training I had my very first amateur MMA fight after which I returned to Lithuania. During all of this time I am recording my experience through my YouTube channel called “Martial Arts Journey”.
Now I am gradually establishing strategies to proceed training MMA under top quality support and obtaining prepared for my next MMA battle as I even more record as well as share my journey and also discoveries.

Judo DoJo
Judo (meaning "gentle way") is a modern martial art, combat and Olympic sport created in Japan in 1882 by Jigoro Kano . Its most prominent feature is its competitive element, where the objective is to either throw or takedown an opponent to the ground, immobilize or otherwise subdue an opponent with a pin, or force an opponent to submit with a joint lock or a choke. Strikes and thrusts by hands and feet as well as weapons defenses are a part of judo, but only in pre-arranged forms (kata,) and are not allowed in judo competition or free practice. A judo practitioner is called a judoka.
