Jim Arvanitis is a Greek-American martial artist and professional trainer of Mixed Martial Arts/Hybrid Reality Combat based on the pankration model, and author of several books and videos relating to pankration. He is considered Pankration's Renaissance Man and the founder of Neo-Pankration, a blend of the remnants of the ancient pankration and elements found in modern sources such as Western boxing, Savate, Greco-Roman Wrestling, Muay-Thai, and Combat Judo. He holds the rank of Great Grandmaster, 11th Dan from the World Pankration Dan Ranking.

Arvanitis was featured on the cover of Black Belt magazine in the November 1973 issue. This was the first exposure of pankration's history and evolution to the global martial arts community. Jim has since appeared on multiple covers and in hundreds of articles over the past forty years and has received several awards for his efforts and contributions.
