About
What makes me stand out from other instructors/coaches is the attention to details I provide in my instruction. I pride myself on being very patient and detail oriented in techniques that I teach. I make sure every student goes home with a clear understanding of what they've learned and how to apply it on the mats.
I deeply enjoy the fact that I get to do what I love and that's teach Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.
