Seminars, Workshops + Intensives

I have been invited to teach seminars and workshops at jiu jitsu gyms in Europe, Asia, Africa and the Americas. As a teacher, I am an experienced teacher not just at teaching on a 1-1 basis and small group basis, but also for groups up to over 50 students and for a range of skill levels, ranging from “it’s my first day!” white belt through to competitive black belts.

My seminars are different because they are so much more than just about memorizing new techniques. They combine my knowledge and deep understanding of how human anatomy, alignment and spatial awareness can assist in developing skills such as spatial perception, visualization and mental rotation. This is deeply helpful to students of all levels and acts as a catalyst to speed up growth.
