Hello people! I am Charles Harriott.

​

My whole life the only thing that has never changed is my love and practice of Martial Arts. From a young boy, to breakdancing physics major, to software developer, Martial Arts was always part of my life.

At the age of 30, 8.5 years into a professional career I made a change: I left the office behind to embark on a journey making martial arts the main focus of my life. I had always traveled within Florida to train. Over the coming years the journeys got longer as I met more amazing people in the Jiu Jitsu community. In 2018 this allowed me to travel to 90+ schools in 26 countries.

After I got home I decided I wasn't done and have made this my life. I can't think of a better job, as a lifelong teacher there are few things that give me as much joy as watching students gain proficiency and fall in love with their Jiu Jitsu.
