Having the highest ranking NJ BJJ blackbelt teaches in Lyndhurst is truly an honor. I truly believe he is one of the best instructors in the world. I am doing BJJ since 1995 and i learned about 6 things tonight that I can add to combinations off of other things I do. It was an awesome experience for all my students. Thanks to my friend Angelica Oliveira for always helping out, freely sharing her knowledge w all my students, especially my women who look up to her, and being such a great example for my women to follow. for those who don’t know about Dave’s vast experience in the Martial Arts industry, David received the honor of being part of Royler Gracie’s training team and has accompanied Royler and Rickson to Japan for Royler’s first Vale Tudo match and for many other fights as an integral part of Royler’s training team.
