Helena Crevar, a teen Jiu-Jitsu prodigy, has just won two gold medals at IBJJF No-Gi World Championships 2023, blue belt juvenile division!
And not only that… But she also had a 100% submission rate throughout the tournament.
John Danaher was proud of his student’s accomplishment:

So how did Crevar become so successful?
Well, in part it has been due to her training with John Danaher.
She’s been under Danaher’s tutelage for around a year – and is grateful for it:
It’s been almost a year since I started training under Professor John Danaher, and he has always been in my corner and helps me improve and prepare for competitions daily in training.
What has once been a dream is now a reality, and I couldn’t be more grateful to train with such an amazing professor and team.
I will continue to train hard and hope to make him proud!
