FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I go over a quick bjj experience questionnaire, so we only cover the most important techniques on the lessons. For instance, if a student has never done bjj before, we will go over basic concepts.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for 5 years, professionally training/instructing since 2015. I finished my blue belt rank as #1 in the global rank in the year of 2016. As purple belt I've achieve 2 American National Titles, gi and nogi.
