Pacific Top Team Vernon Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

🥋 MEET COACH PING

At Pacific Top Team Vernon, we’re proud to have coaches who don’t just teach martial arts, they live it.

Coach Ping is one of our instructors and brings an incredible depth of experience to the mats. He’s a 25-year military veteran with multiple overseas tours, a BJJ black belt, national-level wrestler, and MMA fighter.

He’s also undefeated in military combative competition, holding two absolute titles.

Coach Ping began his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey in 2015 and has earned multiple gold medals at every belt level along the way, building a strong competitive foundation through years of dedication on the mats.

But what sets him apart is not just what he’s done as a competitor, it’s how he shows up as an instructor.

He leads with structure, discipline, and clarity, focusing on developing students who are confident, capable, and prepared. His military background and high-level competitive experience give him a unique ability to break down complex skills and build strong fundamentals in every student he works with.

For our students, that means learning from someone who understands what it takes to perform under pressure, and more importantly, how to build others up to succeed.

We’re lucky to have Coach Ping on the PTT Vernon team.

3 Things to Remember Every Time You Train Jiu-Jitsu:

Tip #1: Master the Fundamentals
The fundamentals are the foundation of everything in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Whether it's your first class or you've been training for years, the basics are what everything else is built on. The best practitioners never outgrow them—they keep refining them.

Tip #2: Train With Purpose
Every drill, every repetition, and every roll has a purpose. Focus on learning, not just winning. Stay curious, ask questions, and look for the lesson in every training session. There's always another detail to discover.

Tip #3: Trust the Process
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a lifelong journey. The mats have a way of keeping us humble. There is always another detail to discover, another lesson to learn, and another opportunity to grow. Progress comes from consistency, patience, and showing up ready to learn.

🥋 Did you know? Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is often called "the gentle art" - but don't let the name fool you. It's one of the most effective forms of self-defence in the world, built on the concept that leverage, technique and timing beat size and strength.

Training BJJ isn't JUST about learning to grapple - it's about building discipline, problem-solving under pressure, and confidence that carries far beyond the mats.

Our Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu program at Pacific Top Team Vernon is a welcoming space for all levels - whether you're stepping onto the mats for the first time or you've been training for years.

🥋 No experience needed.
🤝 All levels welcome.
💪 Build confidence, discipline, and real skills — one class at a time.
