GUEST SPEAKERS OF OUR PROGRAM
Professor Ricardo Liborio started a “Guest Speaker” program within his college credit course, in which influential people, business owners, professional fighters, firefighters, police officers, people from ALL walks of life who train BJJ come in to be interviewed and help teach a class. Students gain an opportunity to learn from these individuals, and pick their brains, as they figure out their plans and goals after college. We also record and upload these interviews on our Youtube Channel. For updates on our LATEST guest speaker, please follow our Instagram!
