01
Wrestling fundamentals
Greco-Roman and folkstyle experience translated into stance, position, hand-fighting, discipline, and repeatable practice.
Coaching and training background.
A focused page for coaching conversations: wrestling, Jiu Jitsu, strength training, clinics, mentorship, and community events. The goal is simple: help people improve with clear standards, patience, and respect for the room.
Focus areas
Where coaching conversations usually fit.
Each area can stand alone or support a clinic, team talk, training consultation, or longer mentorship conversation.
02
Jiu Jitsu context
Training perspective shaped by Graciefighter Pleasant Hill, Ralph Gracie San Francisco, and the progression from white belt to purple belt.
03
Strength training
A practical strength background built through Diablo Barbell, university training rooms, and Westside Barbell exposure.
04
Clinics and mentorship
Available for focused coaching conversations, clinics, athlete mentorship, and community-aligned events when schedule and fit make sense.
Approach
Firm standards, calm rooms, practical feedback.
- Start with basics that hold up under pressure.
- Give direct feedback without making the room about ego.
- Connect training habits with school, work, health, and long-term consistency.
- Respect safety, trust, and the culture of the room.
Good fit
Useful for athletes, parents, schools, gyms, and nonprofit partners.
Coaching requests can be about wrestling, Jiu Jitsu context, strength training, clinics, public speaking, nonprofit-aligned events, or athlete mentorship. If the request is not a fit, I would rather say that clearly than overpromise.
