J.Garber

Welcome to my scheduler! Book a session with me!
I was on the mats a year before pre-k. So that makes more than 25 years of martial arts experience, these last 11 in jiu jitsu. I'm proud to have become a 10th Planet Black Belt under Master Eddie Bravo, headquartered in Downtown LA. I've also been working on my striking for more than 10 years in a variety of styles.

You can find me at the following locations:
The Yard in Lincoln Heights, USC during school session, and MRG MMA in Central LA/Koreatown. Or we can find time to meet at 10P HQ.
Please contact me here if you want to talk about your martial arts development and train with me πŸ™

Let's Talk

Schedule a time to talk to me about your jiu jitsu and/or finding a time to train together.
Select this if none of the available options work for you and I will reach out to schedule.
