Professor Anthony Chien

Anthony first stepped onto the mats at Renzo Gracie’s in 2000 and never really left. He trained under Matt Serra and Rodrigo Gracie in those early years, but the majority of his time in Jiu-Jitsu has been spent with Master Alexandre “Soca” Freitas, who awarded him his black belt in 2015. Today he is a third-degree black belt.

He teaches Jiu-Jitsu as a complete martial art rather than a single game. His classes move across all three worlds the art was built to cover: sport Jiu-Jitsu in the gi and no-gi, Vale Tudo and MMA, and self-defense that still works when you step off the mat.

“We are what we repeatedly do.”
