Meet Professor Ed “Maverick” Lugo
My name is Eddie “Maverick” Lugo and I am a 46 year old Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt practitioner and instructor. I also have a brown belt in Judo. I have been in BJJ for over 10 years with many highs and lows along my journey. I’m very passionate about my preferred style of martial art and am always trying to learn something new so i can share that knowledge with everyone around. There is almost nothing more satisfying than watching a student or friend “hit” a move you helped teach them.
I’ve been in some form of martial art most of my life including Japanese Karate and Korean Hapkido along with other styles. It’s because of my diverse knowledge of martial arts, I can say without a doubt that BJJ is what everyone should learn regardless of sex and age.
It is an honor and blessing to be able to teach this fine art.
What is Brazilain Jiu-Jitsu?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu or BJJ is a martial art and combat sport based on ground fighting and submission holds. It focuses on the skill of taking an opponent to the ground, controlling one’s opponent, gaining a dominating position, and using a number of techniques to force them into a submission via joint locks or chokeholds. It’s a system that children, woman, and even those upper in age can practice and use effectively against an untrained assailant.
