ABOUT BEN. HEAD COACH AT YAMA
I first started Jiu Jitsu when I was lifeguarding and surfing in Australia in 2010, I fell in love with training and competing straight away. Since then I’ve spent time at jiu jitsu schools all around the world: Australia, France, Spain, Portugal, Hawaii, mainland USA. As I’ve travelled each jiu jitsu school has made me feel so incredibly welcome. They have inspired me, both as a coach and as an athlete, and vitally each school has taught me something special to bring home to Yama.
I have aimed to create a space that is a combination of all my favourite schools that I have been made to feel so welcome by.
