Mike Leferink

(Coach)

I started BJJ to continue developing the skills that I learned from the Army Combatives program as well as to have a bonding activity with my daughter, who also trains. I enjoy teaching because watching people grow is a truly wonderful and rewarding experience, especially when you’re the one guiding them towards their goals. I’m inspired by the everyday people in the BJJ community who choose to spend their time and energy improving themselves. They make me want to push myself harder.

Accomplishments:

Purple belt under Professor Ricky Below of Leesville.

Army Combatives Master Trainer; Combatives instructor since 2004
