A lifelong martial artist, Andrew started his grappling career at the age of 5 with wrestling, a sport he took into college. As a professional MMA fighter he competed against multiple athletes who went on to fight in the UFC and ended his MMA career with a 7-2 pro record and an undefeated 11-0 amateur record. Not only is Andrew is a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu under Rafael Lovato Jr, training for nearly two decades in the sport but he holds a brown belt in Japanese jiu-jitsu as well. Blending these disciplines into his own unique style of "Tracejitsu", Andrew is a regular coach at our week day classes.
Vlad Eydelman
Head Judo Instructor
Sensei Vlad began studying judo at 10 under Sensei Takayuki Yoshinago, 8th Dan, and is a San Dan (3rd degree black belt). As a strong youth national competitor, he restarted the IU Judo Program in 1991 which thrives today. Vlad's instruction focuses on strong fundamentals, leverage, timing and the principles of safe & respectful training. His vision is for our judo program to develop well-rounded athletes, with emphasis on physical and mental health as judo requires both a disciplined mind and a body capable of executing with confidence, timing & control.
