Ever since the first UFC, he has been interested in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu but had never had the opportunity to train. However, when the timing was right, he seized the moment.

He completed the “Gracie Combatives Instructor’s Certification Course” in November of 2008, and is currently teaching the program in Hollywood, CA.

He is dedicated to on-going training of Jiu-Jitsu and trains regularly at the Gracie Academy in Torrance. This keeps him directly connected to his Instructors and helps to ensure that his knowledge and teaching of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu comes straight from the Gracie Family.

He believes in fostering an environment that is conducive for learning and welcomes all who want to learn the life-saving techniques of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu.
