Richard started training Jiu-Jitsu in November 2009. He has been a teacher for both basic class and advanced class in Shanghai Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Academy since Jan 2013. Richard teaches a comprehensive style of BJJ with both fundamentally sound techniques and also the newer modern style of Jiu-Jitsu, especially in the half guard. His strength is the ability to explain to students complicated movements through simple and easy to understand words and gestures.

Richard believes that the best return in an investment is in yourself – In order train full time and improve to his personal best, Richard gave up a well-paid job in the real estate industry in pursuant of his own BJJ dream. Before he spent his days working and now he sees himself as living his own life – happy and satisfied. He hopes BJJ can bring to everyone a healthy, enjoyable and value-maximized life.
