Jesse turned his focus to guiding kids and families through the power of martial arts. He holds a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and has over 20 years of experience training and teaching. He completed his bachelors in Outdoor Studies from Alaska Pacific University Where he created a curriculum to train and accredit Jiu-Jitsu instructors as his Capstone project.
