Bill Walters
Bill began his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu career in 1992, drawn to the sport from a background in wrestling and a love for the ground game. He competed often and placed in all but his first tournament before suffering an injury in 1999. After rehabilitating two shoulder injuries, he was back on the mat within a year and a half.
In 2001, he received his blue belt. A year later, he received his purple belt and on December 17th, 2005, he proudly accepted his brown belt. He attributes his success to diligent training and dedicated training partners.
The next five years hold exciting new plans for 302 BJJ. Bill plans to give his students every opportunity to exceed their expectations, whether in traditional BJJ tournaments, No GI Competition, or the new and exciting world of Mixed Martial Arts.
