My Story
Being the second youngest of 15 siblings I always wanted to prove myself. Sport has been my vehicle to do this. Whatever activity I ever took part in, I always wanted to prove to people that I could be good. Jiu Jitsu has had the biggest single impact on my life. It has humbled me often and helped me to be a calmer and more measured person. As much as I have achieved personally in the sport of Jiu Jitsu I believe my greatest achievement from Jiu Jitsu is that even after 20 years, it still makes me want to be a better teacher, practitioner and person everyday.
