Instructors: Chasing the Art of Jiu Jitsu
George Vancil
George is the senior Jiu Jitsu instructor at End State Jiu Jitsu/Mason Martial Arts Academy and has been teaching Jiu Jitsu in Smithfield for over 10 years. He received his black belt in 2018 from Professor Andre "Tim" Monteiro, "A Force BJJ" and Ricardo Tubbs. George is a retired senior Navy Officer with multiple combat deployments. He has trained Jiu Jitsu on nearly every continent and has shared the mats with Jiu Jitsu legends and real American Warriors. He's known for his mature, intelligent, and dedicated approach to teaching the fundamentals of Jiu Jitsu.
Ray Natal
Ray is a dedicated instructor with 11+ years training in Gracie Jiu Jitsu. His foundation comes straight from the source and he takes great pride in passing that knowledge onto the next generation. His passion for Jiu Jitsu is matched by his patient approach to teaching the Gentle Art.
Phillip Snodgrass
Philip started his Jiu Jitsu journey 10+ years ago under George's instruction. Since then, he's served as a Norfolk police officer, an Army vet, and now a successful entrepreneur. His relentless pursuit of professional excellence is carried onto the mat through his linear teaching approach and focus on teaching high percentage techniques that anyone can execute regardless of age or physicality. His saveragy on the mat is equalled only by his strong character, humility, and loyality.
Hunter Vancil
Hunter has been on and off the mats for 15+ years (more on than off). He has a super laidback and relaxed style of Jiu Jitsu that's been developed over thousands of rounds in and out of the gi. He's all about live training and is often found at open mats where he's constantly testing himself against accomplished grapplers. He teaches in a very fun and lighthearted way. He insists that becoming good at Jiu Jitsu is about keeping it playful, not chasing rank, and not taking it too seriously. Now onto other professional endeavors, he mostly serves as a guest instructor when in town.
END STATE JIU JITSU PROGRAMS
THE FOUNDATION
THE FOUNDATION program is where your Jiu Jitsu journey starts. This is where you'll learn to become brilliant on the basics while becoming street ready. You'll also be slowly introduced to live training, called rolling, where you'll learn to apply your Jiu Jitsu on a fully resisting partner.
LEVEL UP
Our LEVEL UP program is designed for color belts and involves intense training methods aimed to develop a more strategic Jiu Jitsu game. Whereas THE FOUNDATION program is focused on Jiu Jitsu against an untrained fighter, the LEVEL UP program is focused on applying Jiu Jitsu against Jiu Jitsu.
