The BJack Foundation
Illuminating Inner City Dreams
A living tribute to the extraordinary life and enduring legacy of Bryan “BJack” Jackson, a true visionary who dedicated his existence to uplifting and empowering the next generation through resiliency, hope, and passion…
Who is BJack?
Bryan J. Jackson, Sr., fondly known as BJack, was an unstoppable force! Serving as the inaugural Master Trainer for both Nike and Jordan Brands, he was renowned for his unwavering dedication to harmonizing mind and body, and for his mission to empower every individual he encountered to reach their utmost potential. In 2017, his visionary leadership led to a groundbreaking collaboration between the Jordan Brand and Mercedes Benz through his pioneering "Train Like a Champ" program. This collaboration marked a historic moment when the Jumpman Logo graced the exterior of the United Center for the very first time. The United Center recognized Bryan's expertise and formed a partnership for training at their world-class facilities. Here, he not only worked with several Bulls players but also elevated the experiences of his everyday clients by immersing them in the prestigious United Center environment. Bryan's impact extended to high school football and basketball players, where he served as a dedicated strength and conditioning trainer.
His legacy is immortal, forever inspiring generations to come…
