Hi, I'm Coach Roy!

About Your Instructor

With a profound dedication to the art and philosophy of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), I have immersed myself in this intricate martial art for years, evolving not just as a practitioner but as an impassioned instructor. My journey in BJJ has been one of perseverance, introspection, and unyielding commitment, allowing me to gain insights that I ardently share with my students. I firmly believe that the essence of BJJ is not just in the techniques and the taps but in the life lessons it imparts. My teaching approach is holistic, focusing on both the physical prowess and the mental and spiritual fortitude required to excel in this art. Additionally, through my teaching, I seek to bridge the gap between the mat and life, emphasizing the importance of discipline, respect, and resilience. Whether you're a novice eager to learn the basics or an advanced practitioner aiming to refine your skills, I invite you to join me on this enlightening journey of BJJ, where every lesson, every technique,  and every word is a step closer to mastery.

I'm honored to be your coach.
