Team Elite Bjj Jeremy Zarghami Elite Sports

Biography

My name is Jeremy Zarghami and I am 30 years old purple belt under Abmar Barbosa. I started training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu to learn how to defend myself, and it turned out to be the most important thing in my life. Even now I can remember the feeling that my first competition gave me. My feet on the mats, hundreds of people watching me – that is what gives me a feeling that I can’t explain. I love to compete, I love to feel those goose bumps, and it makes me feel like a hero before the fight.I have been training Jiu-Jitsu since 2011, and in those years I have collected many victories. I have competed at Brasileiro, World’s, Pan Ams and many others. I have been lucky to meet and train with many Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Stars, and that motivates me even more. My biggest dream is to achieve World Champion title, which I haven’t managed yet but I know it is my next dream that I am going to fulfil.I am a hardworking person, that’s why I had the opportunity to come to USA to train and compete. I am lucky to have to people who believe in my dreams as much as do I. I would be more than happy to have Elite Sports as my sponsor and proudly represent the team whenever and wherever I am. As my other advantage I would like to add that my Instagram account should shortly reach 1k followers and my Facebook fan page has already over 1,2k fans. I promise that if you choose to welcome me to your team you won’t be disappointed.
