Aaron Goh is the Head Coach and founder of Leverage BJJ Malaysia based in Kuala Lumpur. Founded in 2010, the gym is also the only local gym to have produced the most number of home grown black belts.As a passionate coach, Aaron is not one to mince his words. He talks of his dedication to his students, making the right decisions and the importance of humility as a human. Not to mention how funny he can be when discussing Jiu-Jitsu and what he loves and hates about the sport. This episode was recorded in April 2024 when Aaron was kind enough to fly into Bangkok for less than 24 hours just to sit with us and chat.
