Instructor Spotlight
Kirik Jenness leads instruction at NESF, giving students a consistent point of contact across the academy’s jiu-jitsu, MMA, wrestling, kickboxing, and open mat sessions. With youth classes for ages 8-14 and a training environment that supports both structured learning and extra mat time, students can expect coaching that fits beginners and developing grapplers alike. The combination of small-group youth classes and combat-sports equipment also gives lessons a hands-on, functional feel.
