Huge thank you to Professor Jeff Curran for an incredible seminar this past Tuesday 🙌

The level of detail, pressure, and real-world application he brought to the room was next level. Our team gained a ton of valuable insight that we’re already putting to work on the mats.

We’re proud to officially announce that Hosford Jiu Jitsu Academy is now part of Team Curran 🤝 while continuing to represent and stay rooted in the Pedro Sauer Association.

Honored to grow, learn, and build alongside such a strong lineage and community.
