Professor Jason Yerrington
Jason Yerrington is a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu under Luiz Sergio "Marra" Corea. Jason stumbled into Jiu Jitsu and MMA after he was done playing collegiate basketball for the University of Incarnate Word. While he finished his bachelor's degree in Biology; he looked for a way to stay in shape and still have the competitive thrill that was in college athletics. Jason has fought in the cage 3 times with a record of 2 wins and 1 loss. After being introduced to BJJ as a tool to use in his MMA bouts, Jason fell in love with the gentle art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Jiu Jitsu became a passion of his that surpassed anything that he had previously done.Awards
