On a long drive to a fateful camping trip soon to-go-very very bad, Felicia Oh was introduced to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu by her friend's husband.

Intrigued by the notion that technique and skill could overcome size and strength, she went to watch a class. She signed up and started

training the next day. Felicia has since dominated many national competitions and was awarded her black belt by Jean Jacques Machado

after only 4.5 years – an achievement that has left many of her male training partners both envious and struggling to keep up. In 2007, Felicia became the first woman to win both the Pan American Jiu Jitsu Black Belt Gi and No-Gi divisions. After winning the ADCC North American Trials and securing her spot to represent the United States at the ADCC World Submission Wrestling Championship, she had convincing victories over a multi-time BJJ World Champion and a Japanese superstar which put her in the finals of the most prestigious grappling event in the world.

In addition to teaching at Otis College of Art and Design, she is also a certified Kettlebell instructor. Felicia currently teaches Women’s Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu as well as Kettlebells at Big John McCarthy’s Ultimate Training Academy in Valencia, CA. She is also a guest instructor with Jean Jacques Machado’s Online Training Program. She is now a happy camper.
