Eric Alequin is more than a fighter—he’s a builder of champions and a force for personal transformation. As a professional MMA fighter with a 7–1 record, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt, and co-founder of The People’s Jiu Jitsu in South Florida, Eric has carved his name into the fight world through skill, resilience, and an unshakable mindset. He’s stepped onto stages like the PFL Challenger Series, Combate Global, and CFFC, earning respect for his patience, precision, and relentless drive. Yet, it’s his role beyond competition that sets him apart: guiding students, mentoring athletes, and coaching alongside his wife, Amanda “Tubby” Alequin, to instill discipline, confidence, and clarity of purpose. Eric’s life is proof that combat is more than physical—it’s mental, spiritual, and deeply human.Level 🆙 Take-Aways At The People’s Jiu Jitsu, he focuses on identity-building — helping others become who they need to be, not just chasing tap-outs 🥋Peak performance isn’t about being yourself under pressure — it’s about stepping into a crafted identity (alter ego) built for battle 💥Motivation is fleeting — it’s the systems, discipline, and rooted identity that keep you going when energy dips 🔁Instead of chasing hype, Eric studies greatness — watching legends like Sugar Ray Robinson to dissect what made them unstoppable 📽️Eric teaches his students to set goals around what they’re bad at — because growth lives outside the comfort zone 🎯With kids, he preaches balance — training must be fun until the child chooses to get serious. Burnout ruins potential 🧸Eric’s wife, Amanda “Tubby” Alequin, is not just a world-class black belt — she’s one of his greatest teachers and motivators 💪💞 📣QUOTE: "When you're no longer doing it for yourself and you're doing it for someone else, it's easy to get up and do things that suck." - Eric Alequin🔹 Valuable Time-Stamps🔹⏰ 00:03:10 – Power of Alter Egos How top performers step into a different identity to dominate under pressure.⏰ 00:08:45 – Discipline Over Motivation Eric explains why systems and standards always outlast fleeting motivation.⏰ 00:15:30 – Neutral Thinking in Combat Staying calm and emotion-free when the fight isn’t going your way.⏰ 00:22:50 – Visualization Before the Fight Eric’s process for mentally preparing for every detail of competition.⏰ 00:34:40 – Building Identity-Based Confidence How Eric helps students grow through small goals and humility. You Can Contact Eric Here:Phone: (561) 951-7773 Email: [email protected]   🌐 Website: www.ThePeoplesJiuJitsu.com 📷 Instagram: www.Instagram.com/thepeoplesjiujitsu 📷 Eric’s Instagram: www.Instagram.com/eric.alequin 🔗 LinkedIn: Coming Soon!▶ YouTube: Coming Soon!
