As a dedicated Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coach with 6 years of experience, Adam is passionate about empowering students to learn, grow, and excel in the art of BJJ. He emphasizes technical proficiency, strategic thinking, and mental resilience to help students reach their full potential both on and off the mats.

Coach Adam began training at Urijah Faber’s ultimate fitness in Sacramento CA in 2018. It is here that he built his foundation of the sport by receiving instruction from world class MMA and BJJ practitioners. He spent another few years training in Folsom CA before eventually moving to Dayton NV in 2021. He has been training and helping coach at JREAM Academy for the past 3 years.  Adam is now a brown belt and loves sharing his knowledge of the sport.  He maintains a “white belt” mentality that allows him to continue to learn and grow new skills.   

 "Jiu jitsu is a passion of mine. I love the sport, but also the incredible friendships and self-confidence it brings. I'm dedicated to helping people achieve their goals and grow stronger, both physically and mentally. I have taught the kids program for the last 5yrs and also run a few of the weekly fundamental classes."
