James Faulkner

Black belt · Owner and Head Professor. Training since 2013, under Rafael “Formiga” Barbosa.

Professor James Faulkner is a black belt. He started training in 2013 as a hobby he could do with his son. He soon realized he had a passion for the sport that went way beyond a hobby, and started competing and growing his skills.

He trains under Rafael “Formiga” Barbosa. Along the way, James has enjoyed showing others what jiu-jitsu has to offer by teaching and coaching. He has seen firsthand what a positive life change BJJ can be for kids and adults, and he looks forward to sharing that with more people.
