Mikal Abdullah
Founder & Head Coach — 4th Degree BJJ Black Belt under Rigan Machado · US Army Veteran
Teaches at Aces Pflugerville — 1700 Grand Avenue Parkway #220, Pflugerville, TX 78660
Professor Mikal Abdullah is a 4th Degree BJJ Black Belt, promoted by 9th Degree BJJ Red Belt Rigan Machado — one of the most decorated figures in the history of the sport. He is a US Army veteran, international champion, professional fighter, father, and teacher.
After the military, Jiu-Jitsu was a huge lifeline — a way to rebuild his health, meet some of the best friends he could ask for, and keep growing into the best version of himself. Sharing that same experience with new students has been the guiding light since he opened the first Aces location in 2013.
Today he leads the coaching staff across both Aces locations, teaching the structured syllabus that has developed champions from white belt — never recruited — and built one of the winningest competition teams in Central Texas.
