Matt was born in Detroit, but his family quickly moved to Texas and has lived here ever since. Matt started training in jiujitsu in 2018 and is currently a brown belt under Professor Ricardo. Matt has competed and medaled multiple times at JJWL and continues to compete.

What Matt loves about jiujitsu is how much it feels like a game, but is also such an amazing workout and stress reliever. Matt has really enjoyed stepping into the teaching role to help kids and adults, both new and experienced, reach new heights in their physical fitness, problem-solving, and mental resilience.

For Matt, the best thing about Legacy is the community that has gathered around the endeavor to make mental and physical progress. Also, the camaraderie of sharing a journey is very important. Whether your focus is competing, learning self-defense, finding something fun to do, or just getting healthier, Legacy is the place for you.
