Kev is a highly talented coach. If you’re new to BJJ/self defense and want an unintimidating, friendly and fun environment complemented by a training approach that is intelligent, collaborative and easy to understand, he is the perfect choice. And if you are a little more advanced at grappling and want a great training partner who can test you and help you think about the sport differently, I also cannot recommend him more highly!
