Many years of experience teaching the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu makes Kevin a specialist in dealing with people in the martial arts business. His philosophy of teaching is based on creating a family style atmosphere where people can train in a friendly, clean and healthy environment, helping and developing together but always evolving and growing as a martial artist within individual skills and personal limits. Great attitude, good energy and a lot of smiles are always following Kevin wherever he goes to teach and now he will open his very own academy! In our academy we will start a way of teaching, for a better future, one student at a time; because we believe martial arts should be character building and promote physical fitness at the same time. We will provide a perfect environment to develop great people through martial art , promoting important values and principles that don’t seam to be a priority anymore in the modern societies but for us is a very important part of a better living: tolerance, compromise, honesty, opening, freedom, love, balance, efficiency, patience and control.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) presents a valuable martial art for law enforcement professionals to harness in their toolkit. We are enthusiastic about providing training opportunities to officers in this regard. BJJ emphasizes the art of gaining control over resisting adversaries, compelling them to yield. Given that ground combat inherently offers more advantageous control opportunities compared to standing combat, a significant portion of BJJ technique revolves around transitioning the fight to the ground. This strategic approach facilitates the execution of dominant control positions, ultimately rendering the opponent harmless.
