Best Kids Coach in the Verde Valley. Hi, my name is Ted Osburn. I am the founder of Osburn Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Cottonwood Arizona and I am a former IBJJF certified  Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt with almost 20 years of teaching experience. I earned my black belt in 2010 in Austin, Texas, and was awarded the first degree on my black belt by Carlos Machado in 2013. I won the 2014 Arizona State Championship "Gold Medal" at the Black Belt level and I have coached many students here in the Verde Valley to personal and tournament success. I am passionate about teaching martial arts and believe they can help people of all ages and abilities achieve their goals. I am a very dedicated, patient instructor who focuses on the positive development that comes from maintaining a regular practice in ones life.. I have always been very generous with my knowledge. I specialize in teaching kids and will work with them to help reach their fitness goals and develop a well rounded self defense skillset.

My sessions are designed for students of all levels, from beginner to advanced. I focus on teaching proper technique, movement drilling, and sparring. I believe that the best way to progress is to be consistent. 

I also offer one on one and group sessions for kids and adults by appointment.
