Your coach
I'm Matt Bryers.
I started in 1991, a skinny, shy kid who got bullied. I wasn't naturally gifted. I lost a lot, kept showing up, and got good. That still shapes how I coach.
Since then I've earned a 3rd degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Rafael Formiga Barbosa and a 5th Dan in Kobukai Jujitsu under Russ St. Hilaire. I spent years in Kyokushin under Shihan Fujiwara, plus wrestling, boxing, judo, Muay Thai, Kali and MMA. I've taught since 2007, run my own school since 2009, and corner my fighters in the cage. For 9 of those years I also worked the door at the biggest nightclub in Connecticut.
Over 5,000 students, I kept seeing the same thing. People learned hundreds of techniques and never saw how they connect. So I built TRITAC to connect them, so you build a way of fighting that fits your body.
