My name is Erick Tavares, I am a Jiu Jitsu black belt with over 30 years of Jiu Jitsu experience.

​

It was when I met Jiu Jitsu at the age of 17 that my life changed forever. Through my dedication to training, I climbed the ranks and became a professional fighter myself, my dream. 

​

Today, I am a proud coach for my team here at Loyalty BJJ. Owning this gym represents the continuation of knowledge that was passed to me by my professor, now from me to my students
