Alex Csompo.

Alex started Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in 2019 and has been hooked ever since.

He has competed nationally in BJJ, including taking first place, and previously spent 3 years training freestyle wrestling as a teenager in Romania.

Outside of grappling, Alex has spent the past 15 years working full time as a personal trainer, helping thousands of people improve their fitness, strength and confidence.

That experience brings a different perspective to the mats, with a strong focus on movement, physical preparation, technique and helping people become more capable athletes.
