"NO ESCUCHÉ CONSEJO PERO LLEGAMO' A VIEJOS"
Catriel y Paco Amoroso
The Openmat Tour is an open training series for Grappling and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. It doesn’t matter what team you’re from, what style you practice, or how much experience you have — everyone’s welcome. It’s all about what brings us together: rolling, learning, and having fun on the mats. No politics. No egos.
Gyms in Stuttgart and the surrounding areas open their doors to create a space where respect and diversity come first. We roll wherever we’re invited — open, honest, and with no barriers.
ignit(e)raum is a non-profit initiative that creates spaces where people come together to think, learn, and build. Our goal is to show young minds that effort isn’t something to avoid, but a path to growth. Experienced individuals from fields of engineering and science share their time and knowledge—not for profit, but out of conviction.
We believe learning needs more than content—it needs challenge, connection, and mutual respect. Through workshops, mentoring, and creative projects, we foster critical thinking, agency, and collaborative creation—as a counterbalance to fast rewards and shallow performance culture.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a grappling martial art focusing on ground techniques, aiming to control and submit opponents using joint locks and chokes. It can be practised in a traditional uniform (Gi) or without (No-Gi). Emphasizing leverage and technique over strength, BJJ is suitable for all levels and backgrounds.
Come by if you wanna roll ;)
Ajiaco Corporation is a fictional creative factory where all projects live, grow, and evolve. Inspired by the Colombian dish Ajiaco, it blends diverse interests into one playful, curiosity-driven space—mixing tech, movement, and experimentation. It’s not a company in the traditional sense, but a project holding and development lab where things are imagined, tested, rolled out, and sometimes left simmering.
This photo journal is a casual record of travels around the world, captured through pictures and videos using whatever gear’s on hand—starting with a Sony NEX-5R, then an A6300, and now a Fujifilm X-H1. It’s about testing lenses, learning by doing and breaking stuff along the way.
Michael Approves is a laid-back project where I keep track of cool places I’ve actually visited and liked enough to recommend. It’s kind of like a personal map or scavenger hunt, where each spot gets a “Michael Approves” sticker as a way to show I was really there and thought it was worth it. There’s no strict theme, just places that gave off good vibes or had something interesting going on.
It’s my way of maybe giving someone else a reason to go check them out too.
