All three owners of Pollaro’s affiliate schools began as White Belts at Pollaro’s Martial Arts.

Each was promoted to the rank of Black Belt under the training and instruction of Professor Nick Pollaro.  Josh O’ Brien, Mike Brown, and Kenny Rose now act as lead instructors of their own schools and are deeply committed to excellence in teaching the art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

​

Pollaro’s Affiliate Schools act as both a Network and Extended BJJ Family.

 

As a Network, our schools have the ability to share ideas and work in concert to create plans, events, seminars and other BJJ-related activities that benefit our students.

 

As Extended BJJ Family, our students also have the option to train at our main school (Pollaro’s) or at any of the affiliate schools as guests.  Professor Pollaro also conducts seminars at each of the affiliate schools twice annually.
