Professor Yvonne Ferreira

Professor Ferreira founded Team Ferreira BJJ to bring technical, no-ego Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu instruction to the McAllen community. A black belt with years of competition and coaching experience across Gi and No-Gi divisions, she oversees the academy's curriculum and leads adult and competition team classes.

Her coaching style focuses on fundamentals first, control, position and leverage, before layering on the more advanced systems that make up a complete Jiu-Jitsu game.
