Kaitlin

Kaitlin started her jiujitsu journey at age 10. She started training under Eric 2 years later, and he became critical to her transition to the adult classes. He always helped her feel welcome and encouraged her. She quickly realized that finding the right coach was extremely important to her success.

Kaitlin started training more and more and realized her love for the sport. She was honored to become the youngest blue belt possible, receiving it right after she turned 16.

She started helping Eric with kids classes about one and a half years ago and realized how much she loved teaching. She loves getting to do the exact thing that Eric did for her: encourage, motivate, empower, and help kids grow to love the sport.
