Kenny Johnson

Kenny Johnson began his combat sports career as a stand-out wrestler in high school. His wrestling abilities allowed him to continue competition into college where he became a NCAA Division 3 All-American at Cornell College. He caught the eye of the University of Iowa where he transferred to and competed on undefeated Big Ten and National Championship teams under legendary coach, Dan Gable.

Kenny’s passion for the sport kept him involved after college as he coached for the Northwestern University while training for the 1996 Olympics. In 1997, he moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado where he was a member of the first U.S. Olympic Training Center resident program in freestyle wrestling. While attending, he was introduced to some of today’s elite mma fighters such as Randy Couture, Dan Henderson, and Matt Lindland.

Kenny’s strong wrestling base helped him make the transition into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu competition where he has already placed first in the Pan-Americans, Gi and No-Gi World Jiu Jitsu Championships in 2007-09. As an incredible grappler, he then moved on to become a Mixed Martial Artist and train in all aspects of the sport.
