Professor Jacob Benitez received his black belt from Professor Roberto "Tussa" Alencar in 2015 but began his Jiu Jitsu journey in 1999 training on his own gaining knowledge through videos and books until he found Professor Alberto Crane 200 miles N in Albuquerque, NM. Since then he has been bringing Las Cruces and the surrounding areas world class training and officially represented the Gracie Barra red shield for 10 years. We have recently returned to our roots of Three Crosses Jiu Jitsu, family owned and operated since 2008.
