Having taught over 65,000 private lessons and 18,000 group classes to adults and youth from all walks of life, each with unique needs and goals, he’s never lost sight of the life-changing value that his classes bring to every student.
LEOR SAGI

You’ll enjoy how his detailed approach to traditional and self-defense based Jiu-Jitsu makes it accessible for anyone to learn. Intermediate and advanced practitioners will step up their game noticeably from his “secret” techniques (the ones rarely seen in most BJJ schools today that make the difference between winning or not) that he continues to pay forward from his training under the world famous and legendary Jean Jacques Machado and Carlos Machado.
