I’ve been training with Professor Tony for the past 8 years in jiu-jitsu. He has been one of my biggest influences in the sport. He has shaped my game with his mentality of being aggressive and to always look for the finish! 


He is an incredible instructor and never leaves a detail out. I’ve always loved using some of his tricks in competition. 


Don’t miss an opportunity to learn from Professor Tony, he will take your confidence and game to new levels!

I have had the pleasure of training with and watching Tony Erard's journey from beginner to Black belt! He is by far one of the most technical jiu-jitsu practitioner's I know.


I have witnessed him transfer his knowledge to all walks of life with relative ease and I am very confident in his abilities as an instructor and a competitor!


The way he teaches is clear and concise and easy for students to understand!


Don't miss an opportunity to learn from this great instructor!

I cannot recommend him enough as a learning resource.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and training with Professor Tony for quite some time now. He is a very articulate and detail-oriented instructor, and often helps me to identify (and fix) holes in my game.


In my 15 years of martial arts training he is easily one of the most helpful and effective individuals I’ve ever had the privilege to train or compete with, and is undoubtedly responsible for a large portion of my growth as a martial artist. I cannot recommend him enough as a learning resource.

I could not respect a coach more than him!

It’s hard to find an instructor like Tony in the world of martial arts. His knowledge of his passion shines through in his highly technical and easy to follow class instructions.


By understanding the complexities of the art, he is able to break down each move step by step in a way that is fool proof.


In my years training under him, Tony kept me motivated to compete and sharpened my skills in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in such a way that I have been able to carry over this style into all other forms of fighting in my career. I could not respect a coach more than him.
