Enrico Cocco's Bio

Enrico Cocco began his path of martial arts since birth. His parents had been teaching Tae Kwon Do years before he was born. At the age of four, Enrico began to practice seriously Tae Kwon Do as a part of his daily routine. It wasn't till Enrico was 13 years old that he discovered and began to train the art of Jiu Jitsu. He instantly grew a great passion and love for the art and has continually pursued it for the past 10 years.

By the age of 15 Enrico already complied multiple Grappling Championships in kids and teenage divisions. It was then that he decided to begin competing in the Adult Advanced Divisions. Claiming his first Adult Advanced Division at 15 years old and getting coined, "The Teenage Phenom".

By 2007, due to Enrico's grappling pedigree he was invited to compete in the North American Trials for the ADCC World Championships. Enrico would win his first match 5-0. However, he came up short 2-0 in an overtime "burn burner" against Mike Fowler, the 2007 ADCC 4th place Finalist.

Fast forward 2 years, and many more competitions, Enrico entered back in the 2009 North American ADCC Trials and swept the competition. Winning 3 out of 4 matches by submission, and not allowing a single point to be scored on him. Since then Enrico has complied 26 pro grappling wins, 20 of them coming by way of submission.

Enrico continues to spend his days practicing and teaching Jiu Jitsu to his students. It is his main goal to pass on the art and see his students grow as martial artists. Constantly refining and sharpening his techniques and always keeping an open mind to the ever evolving art of Jiu Jitsu.
