About us
The VT1 Coaches
World Champion Instructors
One of the things that makes training at VT1 so unique are the coaches. Ranging from UFC Coaches, World Champions to PHD graduates, all of our coaches are highly trained in the world class VT1 Coaching Method.
What also sets our coaches apart is their passion for learning. Our coaches learnt from the best – the Gracie Family, UFC Coaches, The Cuban National Boxing team and multiple Thai World Champions – and continue to develop the VT1 method on a daily basis.
We pride ourselves on the high standard of coaching across all classes. Coaches are regularly trained by head coaches and encouraged to further their skills by attending workshops and seminars overseas.
Most importantly, all of our coaches are friendly and approachable on and off the mat. They love chatting with students about training questions and anything under the sun!
