We go over and drill proper Rules of Engagment, when encountering a bully situation, using verbal jiujitu; then if necessary: physical Jiujitsu, using leverage based techniques; instead of teaching punching and kicking. Lots of fun and and learning. Knowledge is power.!!
We offer self-defense Gracie Combatives suitable for males and females 14+. We welcome everyone , whether you are experienced or not. No ego zone! Imagine a world where everyone can protect themselves an their loved ones, no matter the attacker size; using leverage based techniques. Energy Efficiency. Patience. Submit.
We also offer specific womans self defense training. The ability to defend yourself against a perp or domestic situation. As mentioned above, using leverage based effective techniques. Rather then using strikes!
Join the journey. 🙏
I enjoy every moment from the moment a 3 year old shakes my hand and is able to have fun and learn and in real life apply amazing basic techniques,but more importantly the character develpment skills, in the situation of bullying.. To the moment an adult student informs me on how Jiujitsu helped them and/or saved them in work, relationships, everyday stressors .

How did you get started teaching?
Since high school through college I began training my teammates, on football ad track and field teams. this is hugely due to the fact my Father and older brothers were all-american athletes. so they guided me on the do's and dont's when it came to sports training. Also, my Father and Mother are Certified Personal Trainers. so they fueled the desire to help others who may or may not be able to help themselves. these folks that strived for better healthier lives, with no direction or understanding of where to start to reach levels of fitness and health only dreamed of. After college, i became certified in personal training and teaching jiuitsu.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with children of 3 years of age for discipline and behavioral issues. to adolesnces who needed guidance on health and fitness, to all american highschol athletes and high level d-1 college athletes. most recently i have been training a few olympic athletes.
on the elder side, i have trained folks who never worked out before andfound such passion to run marathns and even ironman competitons. also, client with bad health issues, such as high cholesterol sleep apnea, obesity, but due to thier dedication and poise to be healthy we reversed the ailments.
