About Jed
Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu | Founder & Head Coach at Elite Submission Grappling
​
I was introduced to martial arts at a young age, thanks to my father, an amateur kickboxer turned boxing manager. From early on, I learned the importance of striking and self-defence. As I grew up, martial arts became a natural interest of mine. At 16, I decided to explore grappling, and after my first Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu session, I immediately knew it was the sport for me.
​
Just one year into training, I earned my blue belt and realized that Jiu-Jitsu was not only something I enjoyed but something I wanted to dedicate my life to. By 19, I was a purple belt, but my journey took an unexpected turn. While competing in the European Championship in Lisbon, Portugal, I sustained a severe injury. This setback, combined with financial struggles and a lack of motivation, led me to take a break from training.
​
At 21, after over two years away from the mats and having gained about 20kg, I knew I had to make a change. Determined to regain my confidence and get back in shape, I returned to BJJ. In just four weeks, with focused training and better nutrition, I lost 10kg and was ready to step back into competition.
​
At 23, I earned my brown belt and solidified my reputation as one of the top grapplers in the UK. In April 2021, I founded Elite Submission Grappling, and just a few months later, I was honoured to receive my black belt.
​
At 28, I’m proud to have established myself as one of Europe’s top No-Gi grapplers while leading a thriving community at Elite Submission Grappling. I’m deeply passionate about helping others reach their full potential and am excited for what the future holds.
