blake beavers

Blake began his jiu jitsu journey in 2016 at the behest of his close friend, a professional MMA fighter. After briefly training in the 10th Planet system, he began Gi training with Alliance Black Belt Lee Livingstone at Bigfoot BJJ in Bangkok, Thailand.

Livingstone’s approach was extremely competition-focused, and Blake brought this highly practical game and training mindset to Foundations as a blue belt in 2019. Having earned his purple belt at Foundations in 2022, Blake now teaches the Wednesday night drilling/competition prep class.
