I have known PJ for a while and like me he is someone that is always interested to learn more, his students are lucky to have a chance to have him as a teacher!
Marcelo Garcia
I have known PJ for many years. From his first visit to the Jean Jacques Machado Academy (I was there the night Jean Jacques gave him his blue belt) to his current status as a very talented Brown Belt, PJ is one of the most talented, committed and loyal members of the Jean Jacques Machado Team. He is also a consumate professional and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to explore the beauty of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Whether you are looking to train just for fun, or are a serious competitor.
Jay Zeballos
PJ has always been a world jiu jitsu traveler, seeking out the best techniques no matter how far the path. His undying passion for jiu jitsu will carry over to all the men, women and children who are intrigued by the fascinating world of this amazing Brazilian martial art.
Eddie Bravo
Having sparred PJ over 300x per year for 5 years, I have developed a great respect for his commitment towards BJJ. His strength of character is what sets him and a few others in this industry apart from the rest. Shrewd attention to detail, technical proficiency, combined with an easy manner and friendly demeanor, PJ is the ideal jiu jitsu coach for the recreational practitioner up to aspiring athletes.
Rowan Cunningham
I have had the opportunity and privilege to work with PJ over the years in the sport of BJJ and MMA. He has always had the ability to compete at a high level of BJJ as well as pass on the knowledge to anyone willing to learn. I look forward to working with him in the future.
