Live rolling, footage review, mindset coaching, and Warriors Forge preparation for serious competitors.
Union Team BJJ competition training gives athletes focused preparation for the pace, pressure, and decision-making of live matches. Technical drilling is connected directly to realistic application so students develop a game that continues to work when resistance rises.
Competition training at Union Team BJJ goes beyond learning techniques. Live rolling is incorporated into every competition class, giving competitors regular opportunities to apply their skills against active resistance and experience situations that reflect the intensity and unpredictability of competition.
Grandmaster Ricardo Murgel reviews competition footage with his athletes, breaks down mistakes, identifies opportunities for improvement, and helps competitors understand how to make better decisions under pressure. Athletes learn what happened, why it happened, and how to correct it in future training and competition.
His coaching goes beyond technique. Grandmaster develops each athlete's competitive mindset, discipline, composure, confidence, and ability to respond to adversity—the mentality required of champions both on and off the mats.
Sessions connect purposeful drilling, positional rounds, live rolling, tactical decision-making, and review. Students sharpen timing, recover from difficult exchanges, and learn to maintain a clear plan as the pace rises.
