Jonathan is a Second Degree Black Belt under Professor Gustavo Dantas. He was my instructor at Ares Arizona BJJ for four years and was a big part of my development as a competitor and a coach.
Jonathan and I talk about our coaching philosophies, being business owners and sharing our passion for Jiu Jitsu with our students. Jonathan is a big competitor but that was almost cut short due to injuries. He has taken recovery very seriously and has made it his highest priority to take care of himself mentally and physically. He shares his routines for getting back to homeostasis after training or teaching.
I am so excited to share this conversation with everyone and I know you'll get a lot out of it.
