About Junior
I’m a professional MMA fighter, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt, and 3x BJJ World Champion with over 10 years of martial arts experience competing and training around the world.
I’ve trained alongside elite UFC athletes including Marlon “Chito” Vera, Giga Chikadze, and Beneil Dariush, gaining experience from some of the highest levels of combat sports.
As a coach, I work with both kids and adults, from complete beginners to competitive athletes. I believe great coaching is about more than fighting — it’s about building confidence, discipline, fitness, technical skill, and a strong mindset.
I’m patient with beginners but detail-oriented with experienced athletes. Whether your goal is to learn Muay Thai, improve your striking, get in shape, build confidence, or compete, I’ll help you progress with structured and professional coaching.

Every lesson is personalized to your experience, fitness level, and goals. Whether you’re a complete beginner, want to get in shape, learn self-defense, improve your striking, or prepare for competition, I’ll build the training around you.
Sessions focus on proper Muay Thai and kickboxing fundamentals including stance, footwork, punches, kicks, knees, elbows, defense, combinations, pad work, and conditioning. More experienced students can work on advanced combinations, fight strategy, controlled sparring, and competition preparation.
I coach kids and adults of all experience levels. My goal is to help you improve your technique, confidence, fitness, and understanding of striking while training in a safe, structured, and motivating environment.
No experience is necessary — beginners are always welcome.

Junior is one of the best technical fighters out there and he’s very cooperative and can work with anyone from any background
I've had the pleasure of knowing and training with Junior over the years. He's been an excellent teacher, always inspiring me to bring the best out of my self. I seriously can't recommend him enough!
Junior is a fantastic coach who I would recommend to anyone interested in improving their martial arts.
I 100% recommend jr, super patient and really teaches you how to do things properly. He always gets me right.
The best coach I’ve had. Helped me get fit and usually when you do these things it’s boring and you lack motivation but the guy is such good vibes too and brings GOOD energy! This guys got me addicted to combat sports now! Been transitioning into Brazilian Jiu Jitsu now with him and it’s a cool balance between that and Muay Thai. DEFINITELY TRY IT!
Training with Coach Junior Fernandes has been an incredible experience. Not only is he an exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable instructor, but he’s also one of the most genuine and supportive people you’ll meet. He puts his heart into coaching, always taking the time to break down techniques clearly and make sure everyone understands. His patience, attention to detail, and constant encouragement have helped me grow tremendously—both in my jiu-jitsu and in my mindset off the mats. I’m truly thankful for the opportunity to learn from him and would highly recommend him to anyone searching for a dedicated and inspiring BJJ coach.
Coach Junior Fernandes is an amazing BJJ coach and an even better person. He’s incredibly dedicated, always helpful, and genuinely cares about his students. His coaching has helped me improve so much, both on and off the mats, and he’s always willing to take the time to explain things and help you get better. I’m really grateful to train under him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great coach.
If you’re thinking about starting MMA or want to level up your skills, I definitely recommend Junior. He builds not just stronger fighters, but more confident people too.
I’ve been training with Junior for a while now and I honestly can’t recommend him enough. He’s an amazing coach who really takes the time to help you improve and understand every technique. He’s incredibly patient, supportive, and always pushes you to do your best while making you feel comfortable and confident.
It’s rare to find a teacher with this level of skill who also genuinely cares about his students’ progress. You won’t find many coaches with that amount of knowledge and dedication around. Junior is truly one of a kind and I’m grateful to be learning from him.View more recommendations
