Coach Alma began her Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) journey in 2011 at RMBJJ in Coral Springs, Florida. Over the years, she has competed in numerous jiu-jitsu tournaments as a dedicated hobbyist and lifelong martial arts practitioner. Her passion for continuous learning has led her to cross-train in submission wrestling, boxing, Muay Thai kickboxing, and various forms of fitness and physical conditioning.

With years of experience as an assistant Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instructor, Coach Alma brings both technical expertise and a motivating leadership style to every class. She is deeply committed to helping students develop confidence, discipline, and skill — both on and off the mats.

In 2019, she earned her brown belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, marking a major milestone in her martial arts journey. Today, as the CEO of Mastermind MMA Academy, Coach Alma continues to inspire students of all ages to achieve their best through dedication, perseverance, and the values of martial arts.
