Ben Willis is a brown belt under Nathan Lott and Erik Medlin. He was born and raised in Mississippi, where grappling at any level was not available growing up. He went to North Carolina for high school where he was introduced to wrestling as a sport. In college, this love for wrestling naturally flowed into jiu-jitsu. Everyone’s life has before and after moments they will always remember, and I can emphatically say that finding Jiu Jitsu is one of my greatest after moments.
