Welcome to 4Point Base Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu! I’m your head coach, Mike Contreras, Black Belt under Rodrigo Vaghi. I have over 30 years of martial arts experience however, I have dedicated the last 26 years to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I owe my path to learning to Professor Rodrigo Vaghi in STL and my past coach Dino Costeas in Chicago, IL. Along with my coaches, I thank all my training partners throughout the years as well…you are all family! As a family man, I am grounded in Faith, Family and my Jiu-Jitsu Journey.
My goal is to continue to improve and to always extend my knowledge to anyone that walks through the door! It’s been one of the greatest gifts ever presented to me and I’m blessed to be able to share it with others! With the help of my wife and children, we hope we can offer a family based environment to your learning and even if you are not joining with your family, we welcome you to ours!
See you on the mats!!
We are located on the second floor of The BANC building in downtown Ostrander.

“Mike Contreras is a spectacular teacher and coach. I have been joining him for Jiu-Jitsu training for a couple of years now and am blown away by his knowledge of the sport and art form. He does a great job of teaching complex techniques in a way that is easy to understand. He also understands all of the nuances and angles to help make sure you are the most effective. Jiu-Jitsu is one of the best workouts for burning calories, strength training and expanding your mental capacity. Mike has worked with me and my sons and daughters. Jiu Jitsu can be something for the whole family. I would encourage anyone to give it a shot and Mike is the best around.”

Been training with Mike for 5 years now. Great focus on the basics and technique to really hone in your personal game!
Also, the kids class is amazing to see your kids be apart of. My daughter is gaining confidence in herself and ability after every session! Thanks 4Point Base for being a “cornerstone” in our little community!

Great gym to train at for kids and adults. BJJ is challenging and fun and Mike makes it very enjoyable. Great instructor and awesome at making adjustments to techniques to make it work for a wide array of people. I have three kids in the kids class and they LOVE coming to class (and practicing at home between classes). Mike always has time to field questions and tries to make sure everyone is comfortable before moving on. He answers questions without making the asker feel dumb for asking the question. That seems simple, but not every instructor masters this like Mike. Very impressed with his knowledge and patience!

My family knows Coach Mike on both a personal and professional level. His knowledge and professionalism is outstanding. Better yet, he is kind, entertaining, fantastic with kids of ALL ages, honorable and is a true TEACHER. We appreciate Coach Mike and his entire family. What a treat to have his BJJ school right here in Ostrander!
