As a black belt under both Renzo Gracie and John Danaher, Eugene was a training partner for many of the sport’s premier athletes known as the “Danaher Death Squad.” His time in the legendary blue basement has honed his skills to develop a highly technical and efficient BJJ game that he now shares with both novice and experienced players.

In addition to his tens of thousands of hours as a personal trainer, Eugene is a certified post-rehabilitation exercise specialist, and he has also obtained his CSCS (Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist) from the National Strength and Conditioning Association. These credentials complement his degree in Exercise Science from Rutgers University.
