From 107 C$ /h
I teach Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), grappling, MMA, Muay Thai, boxing, kickboxing, and self-defense. My training includes both grappling and striking, from ground fighting to standing martial arts.
I have been training in martial arts since 2007 and teaching since 2014. I hold a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) and have gained experience in various disciplines over the years, including boxing, kickboxing, MMA, and grappling.
I have always been interested in understanding why certain techniques and training methods work, and how you can use this knowledge to learn better and more efficiently.
This philosophy also forms the basis of SkillFirst, my personal coaching brand with its own approach: understanding, skill development, and long-term progress take center stage, rather than simply training harder.
What I particularly enjoy about teaching is helping people develop new skills and make progress, regardless of their level or experience.
I believe that good training is not just about learning techniques or working hard. It is about understanding what you are doing, why it works, and how you can apply it effectively.
Whether you are a complete beginner or have years of experience, the lessons are tailored to your level, goals, and physical capabilities.
My approach is technical, structured, and scientifically grounded. I combine practical experience with insights from sports science, motor learning, and skill development.
Instead of simply repeating techniques, we focus on understanding key principles, developing good habits, and learning to make decisions under pressure.
