Welcome back to Iron Sights After Dark! Back in January, I was able to sit down with Ruben Alvarez at SHOT SHOW. We get into Ruben's background: playing jazz music, his fathers love for Martial Arts, both parents being in Law Enforcement and his decision to train Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu..  More recently, Alvarez founded his own training company - Paradox Training Solutions. Tune in for the full story behind the name, Ruben's approach towards training for real life situations and his transition from BJJ competitor to Law Enforcement.
