Over 40 Years of Friendship, Loyalty, and Family

Some relationships begin on the training floor and become part of your life forever.

For over 40 years, you have been my student, my friend, my supporter, and my family. Through countless classes, promotions, challenges, victories, and memories, you have been a major part of the American Jiu Jitsu journey.

Looking at these two photos reminds me that while time changes all of us, true friendships only grow stronger.

Thank you for your loyalty, your trust, and your friendship. I am grateful for every year, every lesson, and every memory we have shared together.

American Jiu Jitsu isn’t just a martial arts school—it’s a family.

Over four decades ago, I achieved my Black Belt alongside a group of people I considered family.

The lessons we learned together went far beyond punches, kicks, and techniques. We shared challenges, victories, friendships, and memories that helped shape who I am today.

More than 40 years later, this photo remains priceless—a reminder that the journey is never walked alone.

🥋 Grateful for the training.
👊 Grateful for the friendships.
❤️ Grateful for the memories.

🥋🇺🇸 HONORED TO TEACH THE CADETS AT WEST POINT 🇺🇸🥋

One of the greatest honors in my martial arts career has been the opportunity to share American Jiu Jitsu with the future leaders of our nation at West Point.

The principles we teach extend far beyond self-defense. They are lessons in leadership, discipline, teamwork, confidence, and perseverance—qualities that serve both on and off the mat.

Thank you to the Cadets, instructors, and leadership at West Point for the opportunity to contribute to the development of tomorrow’s leaders.

For over 50 years, American Jiu Jitsu has been committed to building stronger individuals, stronger families, and stronger communities through practical self-defense and character development.

🥋❤️ PRICELESS ❤️🥋

People often ask me what American Jiu Jitsu has given me over the years.

The answer isn’t found in trophies, belts, or awards.

It’s moments like this.

Watching my grandchildren train, grow in confidence, learn respect, develop discipline, and earn their belts at American Jiu Jitsu is something money can never buy.

Seeing the next generation carry on the values of hard work, perseverance, and kindness makes me proud beyond words.

My grandbabies training at American Jiu Jitsu… Cost: Priceless. ❤️

So proud of Nicolas and Bella on their accomplishments. Your journey is just beginning, and Pa couldn’t be prouder.

An Honor to Teach at the Pentagon

There are moments in life that remind you why you dedicate yourself to a craft. Being invited to teach combative skills at the Pentagon was one of those moments.

For over 50 years, I have devoted my life to studying, practicing, and teaching martial arts—not just techniques, but confidence, awareness, discipline, and the ability to protect oneself and others. Standing on the mat with the men and women who serve our country was both humbling and inspiring.

The experience reinforced a simple truth: effective self-defense is not about size, strength, or intimidation. It is about preparation, mindset, and having practical skills that work under pressure.

I am grateful for the opportunity to share knowledge with America’s finest and honored to contribute in a small way to those who dedicate their lives to protecting our freedoms.

Thank you to all who serve.
