Head Instructor & Owner — Logic Jiu Jitsu Philadelphia
Dennis A. Pressey Jr.
Black Belt under Kristian Woodmansee
Dennis Pressey Jr. has spent 17 years training Brazilian Jiu Jitsu full-time. He is the Head Instructor and Owner of Logic Jiu Jitsu in Philadelphia, and a Black Belt under Kristian Woodmansee — the founder of Logic.
His Black Belt was co-awarded at JT Torres's academy by his professor Kristian Woodmansee and JT Torres together — a recognition of the standard Dennis met as a competitor, coach, and longtime teammate inside the lineage.
Dennis competed at the highest levels of IBJJF and submission grappling — including the IBJJF No-Gi Pan American Championships, ADCC Trials, and UFC Fight Pass — before taking over Logic to fix the two things he saw broken at most academies: beginners getting ignored, and kids treated as an afterthought.
Every program at Logic — Beginner Jiu Jitsu, Advanced, Kids, and Muay Thai — exists because Dennis built the curriculum to actually work. He coaches daily and personally oversees every instructor on staff.
