Professor Gigi Arross – BJJ Black Belt Gigi was first introduced to Martial Arts in 2007 by her husband who also trains Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu so she could learn how to defend herself while he was gone on Military deployments.  She began training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu officially in January 2010 at McMahon BJJ, now McMahon Training Center in Fort Collins, Colorado under Professors Finnie and Tessa McMahon and fell in love with our beloved gentle art.  Coach Gigi has enjoyed competing and has made the podium at White, Blue, Purple, and Brown Belt.  She earned her Brown Belt in January 23, 2020 given by Professor Finnie McMahon.  Professor Gigi was promoted to black belt on Oct 1st, 2023 by Professor Todd Kornfield.  Coach Gigi currently trains at Catalyst BJJ in Windsor, Colorado under Professor Todd Kornfield.
