In this episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jeremy Nitta, a remarkable individual with a diverse background and a passion for jiu-jitsu. Jeremy shared his journey from growing up in Hawaii to becoming a successful jiu-jitsu instructor and school owner.

Jeremy's upbringing on the island of Oahu was filled with adventures, from skateboarding and surfing to motorcycle stunts and drag racing. His love for adrenaline-fueled activities eventually led him to jiu-jitsu, where he found a structured balance to his impulsive lifestyle.

As a young man, Jeremy delved into various martial arts, including MMA and kickboxing, before discovering jiu-jitsu at the age of 23. His competitive spirit and dedication to the sport propelled him to success, earning sponsorships and accolades in tournaments.

Despite facing injuries and setbacks, Jeremy's resilience and determination allowed him to continue training and competing, eventually leading him to open his own jiu-jitsu school, Trickster Studio. Through his school, Jeremy aims to instill discipline, teamwork, and a love for the sport in his students.

Looking towards the future, Jeremy envisions expanding his school to accommodate more students and offer additional services like conditioning and striking classes. His ultimate goal is to create a supportive and inclusive environment where individuals can thrive both on and off the mats.

Join me as we dive deep into Jeremy's inspiring journey, filled with passion, perseverance, and a commitment to personal growth through the art of jiu-jitsu.
