A coach who invests in how you learn

Coach Javi began his martial arts journey at just 6 years old, training in kung fu for several years before being introduced to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at age 13 by his older brother. He returned to Jiu-Jitsu as an adult and has trained consistently since 2007.

Coach Carson has been training Jiu-Jitsu since 2020 and holds a brown belt under Justin Renick. After years of team sports growing up, he needed a new outlet for his competitive drive — and Jiu-Jitsu quickly became it.

After discovering Jiu-Jitsu and catch wrestling in 2022, he committed fully to the craft. As a coach, Greg prioritizes physical and mental growth, teaching athletes to understand why techniques work — not just how to perform them.
