Brandon Olsen is the Head Instructor for Equipe Behring USA. Professor Olsen grew up wrestling in Western Montana. He lived in Ecuador for a couple of years before attending college at Montana State University-Northern in Havre, MT. He quickly joined their wrestling team under Head Coach David Ray, who served as Assistant Coach to the iconic Olympic Gold Medalist Tom Brands at Iowa (a famous wrestling program). Ray led a stellar group to two NAIA Team national titles. Olsen narrowly missed becoming an All-American. Waiting for the next wrestling season, fate, it seemed, had a different destiny for him. He discovered Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu!

While training BJJ, Olsen proved to be a natural. He picked up the art quickly never forgetting his wrestling roots, but leaving behind collegiate sports. It was here that Olsen met Peter Iacavazzi who introduced him to the Behring Family and their line of Jiu-Jitsu. Olsen is Iacavazzi's best student and was his first promoted black belt in BJJ. He pursued MMA and soon fought as a Pro in many events and for many titles, winning several. He is a 5X Grapplers Quest Submission Wrestling National Champion, a 3X Open Weight (Absolute) Runner-up. He wrestled for 2X NAIA National Champions MSU-Northern. He also fought for WEC World Championship Title MMA. Recently, Professor Olsen has earned podium finishes in multiple IBJJF Gi and No Gi competitions. He has a bronze and silver finish in the Master's World Championships with a gold shortly to follow, no doubtedly.

Now, Professor Olsen spends his time training future champions. His school in Hamilton, MT is home to many students. Having produced three black belts of his own (Professor Brown included), Olsen focuses on building more. His children, no surprise, are now following in his footsteps and have started their own wall of trophies.
