Coach
ABOUT OLIVER VAJDA
As a young and eager athlete I found myself competing in MMA, boxing and BJJ tournaments. I excelled in many competitions capturing championship belts and medals. However, as I got older my competitions slowed as I started studies in Psychology at Simon Fraser University. While at SFU, I wrestled with the Burnaby Mountain Wrestling Club and the SFU NCAA team.
During my time training martial arts I began coaching kids and youth in kickboxing, jiu-jitsu and MMA. I have coached hundreds of kids over the years and have been the head coach of the kids and youth program for many years. To this day, I continue to advance my studies with the latest coaching workshops and certificates allowing me to give students my best.
My biggest satisfaction as a coach and instructor is when I see students help each other in class and become leaders. My passion lies in not only developing athletes and martial artists, but creating positive and confident leaders who can be role models for generations to come.
My goals for the future include getting my black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and using my degree in psychology to implement a curriculum around physical literacy and mental sport performance.”
