Glenn Sanford, CEO and Founder of eXp Realty, has 27 years of Judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu experience, and shared his vision for the courses. "In our industry, empowerment is key.

Real estate professionals often navigate unpredictable scenarios. The sessions will teach them to approach every situation with confidence while prioritizing their safety. Ryron and Rener Gracie will review techniques and insights that go beyond self-defense and focus on cultivating a mindset of strength and self-belief.

EXPCON, which takes place Oct. 2-5, 2023, at Mandalay Bay, promises a transformative experience. Beyond networking and learning, attendees will embark on a journey of self-discovery. "EXPCON is not just a convention,” said Sanford. “It's a platform for growth, strength and evolution."
