We have back with us today the True Art Jiu Jitsu boyos. We have my coach Shannon White and two of the upper belts at the gym Ben Sina and Devon Kelleher. Today I wanted to talk to them about competition. I have been missing competition and didn't realize how much until the past few months. I have been looking forward to this conversation for some time now, and it did not disappoint.
Ben has been training Jiu Jitsu for 12 years and is currently a brown belt. He placed second (2nd) at the 2018 Chicago IBJJF Open and is currently 1-0 in the Fight to Win series competition. You can find Ben on Instagram @4_stripes_away.
Devon has been training Jiu Jitsu for 9-10 years now and is currently a purple belt. He has competed in the 2018 Chicago IBJJF Open and a Fight to Win series competition... But we won't discuss his record in those events at this time, lol. Perhaps we can get him to elaborate in a future podcast. You can find Devon on Instagram @Devon_Kelleher.
Shannon is the head instructor of BJJ at True Art Jiu Jitsu in Fairlawn Ohio. Shannon got his black belt in Jiu Jitsu in the fall of 2018 from his instructor Mark Vives of the New Breed Training Center in Chicago Illinois. Shannon started training Jiu Jitsu in 2009 at the age of 19. He has a pedigree of competition in Jiu Jitsu and has many accomplishments on the mat. His latest accomplishment was winning the 2014 IBJJF Chicago Summer Open as a purple belt.
Shannon has a real passion for teaching and believes that Jiu Jitsu is for everyone. He is the only instructor at his gym. So he is there at every class to teach his students.
You can find him online at TrueArtBJJ.com and you can find him on Facebook at True Art Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
His personal instagram is @TheSavageBJJ
