EDJ JIU JITSU AFFILIATE PROGRAM TESTIMONIAL

TESTIMONIAL

 

I've been practicing Jiu-Jitsu for 13 years now. I started training in a school near my neighborhood, but unfortunately, there weren't many options in Chile then. Although I trained for a while, I felt I wasn't learning as consistently as I would have liked. One day, I heard about a seminar being held by Professor Juan Pablo Garcia in my country. I didn't know much about him, except that he was from the US, but Ecuadorian by nationality and a recognized black belt in his home country and the US. Intrigued, I decided to attend his seminar.

From the moment Professor Garcia entered the school and began teaching, I was blown away. He explained each technique and sequence with such clarity that it all made sense to me. After that class, I knew I wanted to continue learning from him. So, I became his student and worked my way up from a white belt to a proud black belt under his guidance.

I highly recommend Professor Garcia's methodology to anyone who is interested in Jiu-Jitsu, whether you're a beginner or aspiring to become a professional. I'm confident that it will bring you significant benefits and transform your approach to Jiu-Jitsu in a positive way, just as it did for me. So, go ahead and try it for yourself. Enjoy the journey and see the results firsthand.

MAYBE IT'S NOT YOUR BUSINESS, MAYBE IT'S YOUR COACHING...

OR MAYBE (AND MOST LIKELY) IT'S BOTH.


Becoming a world-class Affiliate takes having both a great business AND a great product.

Most Affiliations or coaching services focus on just one - business. Not BOTH.

We provide our affiliates with an unparalleled dual-focused program. Our holistic approach delves deep into:

  1. Business Development: Strategic growth tactics, operational efficiency, and branding that resonates with your target audience. We empower you with tools and strategies to flourish as a successful Jiu-Jitsu institution in today's competitive landscape.

  2. Instructor Development: An exhaustive curriculum that emphasizes not just techniques, but also the pedagogical skills necessary to nurture students. Our courses will help you sculpt formidable fighters while fostering a supportive, family-like environment.

JOINING THE TEAM IS EASY

If you want to love your career, empower your coaches to do the same, and change people's lives.
Let us guide you through our recipe for your school's success. 

 

COMPLETELY CHANGE THE  TRAJECTORY
OF YOUR SCHOOL.

The EDJ Affiliate Program educates and unifies School Owners and coaches on a shared mission - evolving your school into a business your entire team can be proud of.

TRACK 1:

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Affiliate Owners are guided through business clarity, business systems to streamline their operations, member engagement, and how to increase revenue and profitability.

Each course component is personalized specifically for your unique business goals, needs, and challenges. 

We reject one-size-fits-all advice and share the unglamorous truth about your Affiliate. We can quickly provide actionable tools and ideas specific to your school and ready for activation tomorrow.

TRACK 2:

INSTRUCTOR DEVELOPMENT

Again, a great business is only a fraction of what it takes to be a successful school. This section of the Affiliate Program is dedicated to improving your school's most important and core product - your BJJ classes.

In this phase, owners are encouraged to invite their entire staffing team and are instructed on improving their ability to coach and deliver a fun, safe, and effective coaching experience.

Where BJJ certifications teach coaches the skills to be good coaches, our coach's development courses take the learnings one step further, showing you how to practically apply the knowledge at your school.
