Chris Heaney - Head Coach Black Belt

Former mixed martial artist turned black belt in Jiu Jitsu, Chris Heaney brings a depth of knowledge from the cage to the mats, from years of experience across takedowns, striking and BJJ. He has studied under Matt Whyton for over a decade and has a way of breaking technique down so that all levels can understand it. He deeply cares about his students and has time for everyone. This approach and high standard to coaching has had a trickle-down effect which has cultivated itself in how everyone operates here. Often mistaken for Clark Kent with his glasses on.
