Episode 6. Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt Under Megaton Dias
The conversation
About Sean Nuzzo.
Sean Nuzzo sat down for Kumite Lifestyle. That conversation is episode 6, “Jiu-Jitsu Black Belt Under Megaton Dias”.
Sean grew up in Washington State and wrestled in junior high before golf took over in high school.
While rehabbing a knee injury from indoor soccer, he started watching The Ultimate Fighter and decided he wanted to try jiu-jitsu. He asked his parents for a gi for Christmas in 2006 and started training at the beginning of 2007.
He went from white belt to black belt in just under seven years, competed at major events like the Pan Ams and Worlds, and now finds his biggest fulfillment in helping his students and family grow.
“I went from white to black belt and just under seven years”
