“I started training over 20 years ago and through persistence and hard work achieved my Black Belt ranking under Nic Gregoriades from Subconscious Jiu-Jittsu in the USA. I have had moments where I wanted to quit as most people do in sports, but I was determined to keep going. For many years I owned a Jiu-Jitsu club in Durban KZN and after moving to Gauteng, I decided to begin teaching the sport after my teenage kids expressed interest in taking it up again. Nothing beats a good workout, feeling your blood rushing through your veins, learning something new every session, trying to checkmate your opponent and most importantly... do it with your children by your side enjoying it with you.
