Jucão Brazilian Jiu Jitsu:

Superior technique
Attention to detail
Intensely supportive community
Creating masters of the art

Professor Chad Smith

Chad Smith is a second degree black belt under Professor Ailson “Jucão” Brites. Like Professor Jucão, he believes that mastery is only possible with a strong community of support. His classes emphasize the openness and adaptability of the art, to those willing to pursue it. 

Professor Chad has been instructing children in jiu jitsu since 2012 and is an expert at preparing today’s children in the unique challenges they face.
