It has been a little more than one year since I was invited to participate in a BJJ class with Sydney. I was a little shy, but he treated me like family and I loved it! I was constantly running into Sydney while surfing or around the beach, and he always insisted that I return. I decided to return this time to a self defense class and I cannot explain how that changed my life. From that day, Sydney became a mentor, a teacher, a friend, and one of my favorite people. He helped me to trust in myself more, in my abilities. That has been a beautiful gift. I have a lot of love, admiration, and respect for this teacher.

I have been training with Sydney for a few months and I really enjoy it. I take both private and group classes. The gym environment is fun but with a serious attitude toward training. The atmosphere is excellent for people just starting out. The more advanced students are helpful and friendly and I always learn something. Sydney has built a family of people from all walks of life and I’m happy to be part of it. Rick Hamilton

A little over a year ago I was invited to participate in a BJJ class with Sydney, I was a little shy, but he welcomed me like family, I loved it! For me, Sydney is a wonderful person, in the sense that he helps people regardless of their background... He has overcome many things and especially loss. I respect him not only because he is good at what he does, but how he does it. He has tremendous humility. I appreciate him very much and above all I admire him as a person and teacher.
