Come train with us

As the coach of MatCraft Combat Sports, I have always tried to look at grappling from the broadest lens possible. I have personally sought out coaches with a variety of different backgrounds and perspectives and their views are reflected in my own. As a result, my classes try to approach grappling by examining different contexts such as IBJJF Jiu Jitsu, Sport Sambo, International Combat Wrestling, UWW Grappling, MMA, and more. We try to ask questions such as; “is this technique useful is all settings, and if not, when is it appropriate and when is it not?” “How do rules determine our choices and how can we use them to predict our opponents?” And “what techniques and behaviours does this point system reward and what does it punish?” As a result, I aim to teach people not just how to grapple but how to understand grappling in its larger context. Whether you are brand new to grappling or have years of experience, I am certain we can help each other improve. So come on out, we would love to have you on the mats with us.

Classes are currently offered in the downstairs studio of the Capoeira Ache Brasil Academy.
