Adam “Big Red” Sachnoff is the head instructor and owner of 10th Planet San Mateo. Adam was introduced to 10th planet Jiu Jitsu through Eddie Bravo’s first black belt Denny Prokopos. Prokopos trained Adam to be a world champion competitor and a great instructor. Adam’s goal is to positively impact as many people’s lives as possible through his teaching of Jiu Jitsu. He believes everyone can benefit from training in BJJ. Jiu Jitsu forces those who are out of shape to work up a sweat, BJJ forces those who are socially awkward to communicate with their peers, it forces those who are arrogant to check their egos, it forces those who lack friends to constantly be around nice people who care about them with similar interest.
