Počinje da trenira u jednom od prvih klubova BJJ u Evropi - Cercle Tissier u Parizu. Vredno trenirajući i učestvujući na raznim takmičenjima u Francuskoj, odlazi redovno da trenira u Brazil gde počinje kod velikog majstora Carslon Gracie-ja.

Za Carslon Gracie Akademiju učestvuje na svetskom prvenstvu. Osvaja prvo mesto i zlatnu medalju na Evropskom kupu i postaje prvi Srbin koji osvaja zlatnu Evropsku medalju, takmičeći se za Jugoslaviju (posle dugo godina i njegov sin postaje Evropski šampion).
Osniva Žerjal Team u Parizu, Bagnolet gde trenira i vodi tim. U Srbiju dolazi 2000. godine i donosi Brazilsku Jiu-Jitsu. Kao pionir BJJ u Evropi kreira klubove i osniva BJJ savez Srbije. Dobija crni pojas od majstora Fernanda Pinduke (7. dan) - najvećeg borca prve generacije velikog majstora Carslon Gracie-ja.
Prvi u Srbiji organizovano trenira borce za MMA i stvara najveća imena na ovim prostorima. Mlađa generacija njegovih takmičara osvaja u juniorskoj i seniorskoj konkurenciji brojne medalje na Internacionalnim, Evropskim i Svetskim šampionatima u Brazilskoj Jiu-Jitsu i Grapplingu.
