TESTIMONIALS
My Coach Riccardo, with his unbreakable diligence and audacious yet glorious attitude for his goals, has inspired me to follow my passion of competitive martial arts at the ripe age of 28. Without him, I would not feel the joy and fulfillment that I feel today. The time spent with him never has a feeling of shame or pain, but only the love and struggle we share for grappling.
I genuinely believe he is the best and most hard working BJJ coach in Canada; Only if he had more resources to work with, he would be unstoppable. Whatever happens, I will always appreciate the crazy journey we will go on.
