Lee Veitch-Cho

Through many moves and life stages, BJJ has been a constant in Lee's life, and the source of much of his most profound personal growth, deepest friendships, and most important communities. He has his high school wrestling team, college MMA club, Renzo Gracie MMA in the Bronx, and Darcio Lira and Capital MMA in DC to thank for his grappling education and progression to brown belt. He began teaching BJJ in 2014 during his Peace Corps service, later coaching the George Washington University team and teaching private and group classes in DC for 7 years. Lee has a passion for helping beginners build solid foundations, and experienced students identify strengths to hone their game. Off the mats, when he gets a blank look on his face, he's probably thinking about jiu jitsu.
