PATRICK PSENAK

Hello everyone! My name is Patrick Psenak and I’m a holder of a Nidan (2nd degree black belt) and certified National Coach under USA Judo. I began training Judo at the age of 10 in my native Slovakia under Lubomir Zagorov, Dasa Melicharkova, Peter Forro and Jaroslav Duroska.

During my competitive career I participated and medaled in the competitive European circuit of Judo tournaments and competed for JK Patronka Bratislava, where also started Slovak Olympian Jozef Krnac, and TJ Sokol Judo Bratislava, which is one of the oldest clubs in Slovakia that raised many successful athletes.

In early 2022 I decided to contribute to the martial arts community in San Antonio and formed the club which originally started as Southtown Judo. Since then, our students have successfully competed and placed on regional and national tournaments.

In addition, I’m a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Combat Social Club which is an affiliate to Ohana Jiu-Jitsu Academy.
