#14 - Professors Robert Wunderlich and David Wenig PROFESSOR ROBERT WUNDERLICH Professor Wunderlich began his BJJ career at Colorado Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in October of 2004 under the tutelage of Professor Dave Ruiz. Professor Ruiz was one to the first Americans to be included in the instructors program at the Gracie Academy in Torrance, California in the early 1990’s. The Gracie Family, the founders of BJJ, took professor Ruiz under their wing and passed on information vital to teaching BJJ properly. Professor Wunderlich trained as much as he could for several years (up to 13 times per week) until he found out he was accepted to Graduate School at the University of Wyoming. He would begin Graduate School in the fall of 2006 in Laramie, Wyoming. Being that he had fallen in love with BJJ, he felt that he needed to continue his journey somehow, so he asked Professor Ruiz if he could teach BJJ in Wyoming. Professor Ruiz obliged and Professor Wunderlich was inducted into an intense and complete instructors programs focused on the teaching aspect of BJJ. Professor Wunderlich began to teach BJJ through the Community Enrichment Program at the University of Wyoming in the fall of 2006. His modest beginnings included only 6 students the first semester, eventually growing to over 45 students by his fourth semester at the University of Wyoming. Professor Wunderlich returned to Denver after the completion of his course work and taught under the watchful eye of Professor Ruiz at Colorado Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. BJJ Lineage: Helio Gracie > Carlos Gracie Jr. > Rigan Machado > Dave Ruiz > Robert Wunderlich Notable Highlights: Received Black Belt from Professor Dave Ruiz (2012) Founder of the Wyoming Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (WBJJF) Head referee for Fight to Win Jiu Jitsu and Submission Grappling Tournaments.

#2 - Professor Francisco Gonzalez 01/23/2023

#2 - Professor Francisco Gonzalez Francisco Gonzalez is a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt, born and raised in Chihuahua, Mexico. From Professor Francisco: I’ve always been involved in contact and extreme sports, mostly playing football and skateboarding during high school and college and listening to punk reggae music. Constantly watching boxing matches, kick boxing and MMA fights. After leaving college and not able to play football anymore, I tried different ways to exercise. I tried boxing, kick boxing, Muay Thai. Everything was good with Muay Thai, until one of my closer friends invited me to try Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I was immediately amazed by how easily a smaller person beat me up and how Professor Cristian Beck was able to submit all people at the gym. That night I made one of the best decisions of my life and enrolled myself in Jiu Jitsu classes. Training under Professor Cristian Beck, I earned my blue belt from Professor Ricardo de la Riva. Years later, I was honored to receive my purple belt under Professor Cristian Beck. After living almost all my life in my hometown, I decided to move to Colorado 5 years ago, leaving my family and team to find new challenges in my life. I didn’t know what destiny would bring to me but I was sure that I would be welcome at whatever Jiu jitsu gym I tried because the Jiu Jitsu community makes you feel at home without caring who you are or where you come from. So, it wasn’t the exception here in Fort Collins. I was welcome in different gyms and open mats all around town until I decided to train under Professor Finnie McMahon, where I earned my brown belt. Constantly making new Jiu jitsu friends and looking expand this community, I had the opportunity to roll with Professor Troy P. Thomas. I was impressed by his technique and leadership and his excellent taste in punk music. Talking with him about his values, vision, and the love that we both share for Jiu Jitsu, I made the decision to follow him under his leadership. Now, I have the opportunity to share my 8 years of knowledge and love for Brazilian Jiu jitsu. I hope to see you soon on the mats!!
