you believed in your BIG goals?

What if...

both for your personal and Jiu Jitsu development—and felt on-fire motivation and unstoppable momentum driving you closer to them every single day?

you knew when to train, exactly what to work on and when in order to get better faster, and were landing new moves on your training partners each week? 

What if... on the mats

designed perfectly for YOU - aka, a human taking on the demands of a Jiu Jitsu athlete’s lifestyle AND a busy work and family life?

What if… you had a strength & conditioning + nutrition plan

fueling the confidence to chase your biggest dreams—whether that’s becoming a full-time pro athlete, a dedicated hobbyist maximizing your training ROI, or a family/career-focused competitor excelling in your age group a few times a year? No dream is too big or small—I’ve seen it all!

what if... your mindset was unshakable and positive

All of this is  possible for you…

without spending every free hour in the gym grinding to “just train harder,” buying endless instructionals, sticking to an ultra-strict diet, feeling burnt out from doing alllll the things 24/7, or juggling multiple coaches.

Here's the problem, though..

This is how most Jiu Jitsu athletes chase progress:

They go to class 3–4 times a week and train “pretty hard”

Try to eat healthy and lift weights but aren’t sure if they’re doing enough—or doing it right to level up

Struggle to balance BJJ with work, family, and life because they don’t know how to maximize their training ROI

Occasionally take private lessons, watch matches, and ask questions in class

Despite all this, progress

Despite all this, progress                          

Once in a while, they’ll feel a breakthrough—but it’s fleeting. They slip back into the same slump, questioning if they truly have what it takes to reach their potential.

Motivation dips because they can’t tell if what they’re doing is really working.

Motivation dips because they can’t tell if what they’re doing is really working.

slows down.

They either step away from the mats completely or their frequency—and passion for Jiu Jitsu—fades away. I’ve seen it happen so often, and I don’t blame them! Feeling stuck at a “bronze-level” performance is exhausting. Believing you have the potential to be amazing but feeling lost and in the dark about what’s “right” can be truly soul-crushing.

Eventually, these athletes give up.

It                         have to be this way.

If you’ve felt any of these things, it might be time to stop spinning your wheels.

"Before JJA, I was at a point in my journey where I wanted MORE for myself. I wanted to build my confidence and to elevate… but I didn’t know how to. I’m also a full-time software engineer, so I needed to find balance around my passions. I can say with full confidence that I achieved what I sought out from JJA and more. Now, the Connie on the competition mats today is a very different person. I’m really proud of myself, developing trust in myself to achieve what I set out to be, and I’ve never been more excited."

"I’m developing trust in myself to achieve what I set out to be."

I founded Jiu Jitsu Accelerator in March of 2021 for people exactly like you (because that was me, too). I know how it feels to want to be the best athlete you can be… to feel passionate, but unsure of where you’re going next (and if you’re REALLY on the right track). To lack guidance from someone who has been there and done that.

Back in 2016, I had just returned to my first childhood love, Jiu Jitsu, after a 5 year hiatus to chase my Olympic Wrestling dreams, and I was met with a harsh reality. With wrestling, I had a plan. The coaches at the Olympic Training Center were experts in training periodization, strength & conditioning, nutrition, mindset work… all of it. But as I came back to chasing my Pro-Jiu Jitsu Athlete dreams, I felt I was on my own.

I had great people around me, no doubt. But the truth was… I didn’t have a plan. I was throwing the kitchen sink at my goals, and tornado-ing my way through trying to achieve personal excellence (lol, sound familiar?).

Hi again!

A frustrating relationship of tying my self worth to my success & results

No roadmap or plan on how to get better

Inconsistent competition results (double gold some days, losing first round other days)

No real personal “coach”

I was a struggling blue belt with:

No clear guidance on how to feel more “whole” in my journey

I worked really hard, I won some tournaments, and I knew I was willing to do what it took, but I quickly learned a humbling lesson.

but unless you know how to create a CLEAR PATH to Gold Medal, Champion Level Performance, it’s almost impossible to reach your highest potential.

You’re living a big, full life while pursuing your passion as a dedicated athlete, just like me—and that’s no small feat. Balancing both takes more than just grit and effort; it requires a clear strategy, the right tools, and a mindset built for success to truly reach your next level.

When I realized this for myself, I became obsessed with mastering and blending Athletic Performance and Personal Development. I transformed inconsistent results into razor-sharp progress, earning 8 World Titles at every belt—all without a full-time team of coaches or training at a “famous” academy.

My physical and mental performance peaked, my life flourished on and off the mats, and people started asking how they could achieve the same. That’s why I created JJA, a program to share my signature methodology,w (which has allowed me to win the biggest tournaments in the world AND maintain a very full life) — all because I know what to do and when to do it.

You can have all the desire and resilience in the world…

This is how Jiu Jitsu Accelerator was born! JJA has now reached clients from all over the globe through the last 4 years, and the expansive work we do inside this container is truly my greatest honor.

Jiu Jitsu Accelerator is a 6 month, high-touch, 1:1 mentorship program where you'll experience accelerated personal development through the lens of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. You will learn to embody the lifestyle of a Professional Jiu Jitsu Practitioner to help expand EVERY area of your life (including training, competing, excelling on the mats, of course). Each session when doors re-open (typically once per year), those on my waitlist get access to apply before the public. Applicants who are then invited to join our special container will enter into JJA’s Signature Framework.

It doesn’t have to feel like a big mystery.

In Week 1, we break down the process of defining what your actual goals are. Do you want to compete with massive confidence (I’m talking winning worlds, your local tournament, whatever makes your heart sing)? Do you want to start submitting that new purple belt? Do you want to re-balance how you’re spending your time and energy a bit? We will look at where you ARE, where you want to GO, and create a detailed vision of what it means for you to live *your* Champion Lifestyle. This teaches both of us how to approach the 4 Pillars of JJA for your journey, specifically.

Envisioning &
Expanding Your Future

PRE-FRAME + JUMPSTART

You will learn the mindset tools and sport psychology we both need to excel as athletes in competition - and in our daily lives. Not only will you learn and practice all of these, but we will carefully cover how to turn these practices into real, lasting habits. You will re-wire your brain to think like a champion - and most importantly, to ACT like one too… whether you’re on the mats, at work, or with your loved ones.

Mindset & Sports Psychology

pillar 1

You will understand how to build a personal roadmap for your Jiu Jitsu success (ahead of time!). You will learn how to be decisive about what to work on, how to work on it, how to learn the nuances of it, and how to implement it in training. You will feel committed to one thing at a time and create compounding building blocks with your techniques. You’re going to go from overwhelmed to confidently tracking your rock solid progress.

Jiu-Jitsu Technique & Training

PILLAR 2

You will experience what a Jiu Jitsu athlete needs (and should leave out) in his or her Strength & Conditioning plan. You will discover how to create a lifting program for yourself which promotes consistency, helps prevent injury, AND prepares you for competitive matches. Not only will you feel stronger and faster, but you will also understand how to avoid injuries and keep the body safe.

PILLAR 3

Strength & Conditioning for Jiu-Jitsu 

You will develop an enjoyable plan of eating which fuels your needs and feels sustainable. You will know what to add, what to subtract, what to avoid, how to stay consistent, and how to audit diet for weight-class situations with competition if necessary. We maintain a focus and priority on health and performance over aesthetics.

Nutrition for
Jiu-Jitsu Athletes

PILLAR 4

In our final weeks together, we will closely examine what it means for YOU to be your own best coach in all 4 Pillars - on and off the mats. You will have been guided both by experts AND by yourself through our 6 months together, and you will have practiced enough trial and error to know how to lead yourself into Gold Level Performance moving forward. We will craft a success plan for your post-JJA Champion Lifestyle together, so that you keep moving up and up, using your new tools and skills to do so. This is the most important aspect of JJA: putting the power into your hands and heart - right where it belongs.

Becoming Your Own Best Coach

"JJA showed me how to create the most effective BJJ growth plan that fits my own lifestyle and goals. These lessons continue to help me on and off the mat."

"JJA literally changed my life. I went from a negative mindset and let a lot get me down, to being the happiest I have been for a long time. Now nothing really gets to me."

Tamara Kneebone

In order to ensure quality care and experience, I can only take a very limited number of clients per year. I have found that my system works best for these two groups of people who want to go further, faster:

Is JJA Right for You?

and may or may not want to compete, and have a full professional / family life. They’re not looking to go pro, necessarily… but they feel their potential is probably much greater than what they’re currently experiencing. While they know that, they lack the guidance to fulfill it. They don’t want to have to figure it all out on their own. They want to have access to a high level expert, and they’re ready to accelerate their progress

BJJ practitioners who love jiu jitsu

but know there is more in their tank. They want to figure out how to access it and consistently medal on the world’s biggest stages. They have dreams of being a professional athlete, but they don’t quite know if they’re on the right track to “make it” in such an unpredictable profession.

Experienced BJJ competitors who have had some success

I Do NOT Work With…

Those who do not value maintaining a high sense of personal responsibility (aka this is deep work we will embark on, and my clients are all willing and ready to take ownership of their lives & success!)

Folks who are only focused on competition results, and not interested in a deeper sense of personal transformation.

Practitioners who are not ready to be honest, vulnerable, and open-minded (if this is going to work, we’re going to get to know each other on a deep level)

Kiddos under the age of 13 (teens are welcome to apply, and they are interviewed on a case-by-case basis, alongside parent or guardian :)

JJA alumni

I’d love for you to hear from a few of my JJA Alumni. I’m deeply honored by being a part of each of their journey’s, and gratefully maintain a friendship with each of them today.

Why I’m Different

​I will teach you how to organize your life in the areas of Mindset, Jiu Jitsu Technique, Strength & Conditioning, and Nutrition - a holistic approach to athletic performance which reaches into every area of your life. There is nothing like JJA in our world of Jiu Jitsu.

(and why JJA works for 100% of my clients of various backgrounds)

I figured out how to become a 8x World Champion WITHOUT a famous coach or access to a world-renowned nutritionist / mindset mentor / S&C coach. I’ve sought out experts in multiple industries along my journey, and packaged the best of what will apply to Jiu Jitsu practitioners right here inside JJA.

I will show you how to lead yourself so that you don’t have to rely on one instructor to show you the way (especially when they’re trying to mentor 300+ students at a time!).

​I support you with LIVE video call interactions, as well as unlimited daily support.

I am 100% results-driven - I’ll check in on your personal progress consistently, and you get lifetime access to all JJA material.

​I will teach you how to develop your interpersonal skills and mindset to overcome your mental blocks.

I personally review each applicant. This is a selective process designed to make sure JJA is actually the right fit for you (and vice versa). This is not a “sign up as many people as we can” program - never has been, never will be.

I care deeply for your inner fulfilment, holistic transformation, and happiness.

- Meagan McCorkle

"Prior to JJA, I was borderline burning out and not addressing that burn out. I feel much more balanced. It's really helped me put my health into consideration, and that is how I will achieve my best results. Also being able to learn from other women and hear how both Kendall and Sula structured their priorities, made time for recovery, rest, peace... I really needed that."

 "I feel much more balanced after JJA."

Oh, and a huge bonus I didn’t mention until now? I have a partner-in-crime here in JJA. Meet my assistant coach: Professor Sula-Mae Loewenthal! Sula and I have been best buds since she was a white belt, and I was a purple belt! We’ve been with each other through the ups and downs of chasing our OWN Champion Lifestyles… and we’ve been finding our way through Gold Medal Performance all along. I brought Sula on board the JJA train in March of 2023, and she has elevated the quality of client experience immensely.

Because two expert coaches are better than one

Assistant Coach

  • NoGi European Champion (purple belt)
  • Gi World Champion (purple belt)
  • 2024 ADCC Asia / Oceania Trials Champion (which she won as a brown belt, with a 75% submission rate!)
  • And multiple time Super Fight Champion (including, most recently, on Polaris Professional)

Her greatest areas of expertise (although there are many!), are: working with clients around fear of failure AND overcoming the feeling of not being “good enough” or “capable” of the success you want. Between Sula and I, I can ensure you’re going to feel more powerful than you ever have before. :)

In addition to her 7+ years of coaching experience, Sula has also achieved

The simple answer is YES. Most of my past students worked full-time and fit Jiu Jitsu and extra study into their busy lives—many also had families to prioritize! I get it because I’ve lived it (no kiddos yet, haha, but you get me!). I juggle owning 4 Jiu Jitsu schools, managing my brand, running JJA, and training full-time year-round. Balancing priorities has always been part of my life, which is why I’m so passionate about helping others do the same. Jiu Jitsu Accelerator focuses on scheduling everything—rest, work, training, lifting, and more—in a way that’s not just manageable but enjoyable. It’s all about becoming a “happy champion” just like we say inside JJA!

Is JJA a good fit for me if I work full-time? 

Definitely not. Mindset, Jiu Jitsu Technique, Strength and Conditioning, and Nutrition are the 4 Pillars you will be focusing on mastering in JJA. Every principle we cover together can be used to improve your Jiu Jitsu in the competition arena AND can be applied to help you reach any goal you are striving for, off the mat.

Most students in JJA really just want to be THEIR OWN best version. They want to move the needle forward consistently, with clarity, as best they can, AND fit that into their current lives. They want to be a champion for themselves.

Is JJA only for people who want to become world champions or professional competitors?

Nope. :) I have worked with students of every belt color. Some had never stepped on a competition mat before JJA, and others had won World Championships. To my excitement, this gave me the privilege of learning that the only thing you need to join and succeed in JJA is the drive to put in the work and show up for yourself. If you are able to do that, I’m confident JJA will take you to heights you haven’t even imagined. AND you can always go back and re-do anything we study in the future because you will have LIFETIME access to all the content (teaching videos, written lessons, worksheets, everything!).

Do I need to have a certain level of Jiu Jitsu or competition results to be considered for JJA?

frequently asked questions

So, the only question left is…are you ready to take yourself to the next level? To get to know a whole new version of yourself? To see results you didn’t even know were possible for you? I can’t even begin to tell you how ready I am to see you do all of that and more.

If you’re ready to go from Bronze to Gold Level Performance this year… to finally unlock that potential you know, deep down, you’ve got within you… I invite you to join the JJA waitlist.
