Wesley Smith
Kids Instructor
Height: 5'6"

Wesley started training in 2018. Wesley's path to Jiu Jitsu was led by his daughters who were already training convinced him to give it a try. Needless to say, he loved it. Outside of the mats, Wesley is a RN at Children’s of Mississippi, where his compassion and resilience carry over from his professional life into his training.
A proud father, Wesley finds daily motivation in his two daughters, both of whom have been training for nine years and share his passion for the art. For Wesley, Jiu-Jitsu is more than a sport — it’s exercise, fun, family, and fellowship. He loves anime and draws much of his personal philosophy from Bruce Lee, one of his lifelong inspirations:
“Absorb what is useful, discard what is not, add what is uniquely your own.” — Bruce Lee
On and off the mats, Wesley embodies the balance of discipline, heart, and humility that defines the martial way.
