Ashlea Hackner
Hi there, I am Ashlea Hackner. I am a proud member of Gracie Jiu-jitsu® Fourways.
Even though I come from a family that does other Traditional Martial arts, this was not something that I took up. It was only when I tried my first Gracie Jiu-Jitsu class with a friend that I fell in love with the self-defence that is Gracie Jiu-jitsu. I love the structure of the Gracie University programs and soon realized that technique and leverage is far more effective than strength and power for self-defence. I care that our students are learning in a safe, fun and cooperative environment at Gracie Jiu-jitsu® Fourways. Being able to assist students in the BullyProof and Adult beginners classes on their journey to black belt is truly a pleasure!
The Gracie Instructor Certificate Program means that I am a master in the Gracie Jiu-jitsu® training programs and am certified to teach it Gracie Jiu-jitsu® by the Gracie Family at Gracie University in Los Angeles. Our goal here is not only to teach students in a safe, fun and cooperative learning environment but also how to defend themselves in a real fight.
