Brown Belt

Olivia has been a martial artist for as long as she can remember, stepping onto the mat at just four years old. What started as a childhood passion grew into a lifelong pursuit of excellence across multiple disciplines, earning her a black belt in taekwondo along with extensive training in Muay Thai, kickboxing, weapons (bo staff, short stick, sais, and more), tumbling, and acrobatics.

Today, Olivia is one of the most decorated competitors on the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu circuit. She is an IBJJF World Champion (2023), two-time IBJJF No-Gi World Champion (2024, 2025), IBJJF Pan American Champion (2022), NEWBREED World Champion in Absolute No-Gi, No-Gi, and Gi Expert divisions (2024), and NAGA World Champion in Absolute No-Gi and No-Gi Expert (2025). She has also earned titles at both the intermediate and advanced levels of ADCC competition and has medaled in numerous other tournaments throughout her career. To date, she holds 25 gold medals in her IBJJF weight class, 11 in IBJJF open weight, and 10 in NAGA competition.

With a well-rounded martial arts background and a proven track record at the highest levels of competition, Olivia brings both depth of knowledge and real-world experience to every class she teaches. Whether you’re brand new to jiu-jitsu or preparing for your next tournament, she’s committed to helping every student grow on and off the mat.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been training at Memento Combat Sports since early June, and I'm consistently impressed. The atmosphere and culture here are outstanding; everyone is friendly and dedicated to helping each other improve. The coaches are phenomenal-they don't just show techniques, they really focus on the small details and "nuggets" that help you elevate your game. I've already seen a huge improvement in my skills in just a few months. Whether you're into Jiu-Jitsu, MMA, or kickboxing, this gym is a gem. The emphasis on wrestling is a huge plus and makes the training incredibly well-rounded.

Wonderful Jiu Jitsu studio where the owner and coaches truly care about teaching and making each student (child and adult) better and more capable of defending themselves and growing in the sport! I couldn’t praise them enough!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It’s not always common to find a Jiu jitsu instructor who is both a high level athlete, and a high level instructor, but Joseph Watson easily fills both of these rolls. If you’re looking for a place to call home and learn, or to simply stop in on your travels and get some good high level training in, in a safe and healthy environment, Memento is definitely that place.
