To whom it may concern;
As a police officer of more than 25 years I believed that I was well-equipped to handle myself in nearly all confrontations. I was young enough, strong enough, and possessed sound defensive tactics to control most encounters. Quickly, I passed the 30 year mark and realized that I was no longer as strong nor as quick as I once was and I sought out a means to even the playing field. Having said that, I sought out Gracie Jiu Jitsu at TEAM Bundy Academy.
Coach Bundy provided instruction that integrated Gracie Jiu Jitsu techniques into my patrol-related functions. The attention to detail and the focus on proficiency and skill instead of strength to control situations was the difference I soon realized would be my equalizer against a younger, stronger combatant. Coach Bundy and Gracie Jiu Jitsu have assisted me in leveling the playing field while providing me with added confidence in my ability to protect myself as well as the lives of others.
In a nutshell, the instruction I have received and continue to receive is a game changer!
