I have been taking private lessons regularly from Dave since Nov. 2019. They have been incredibly helpful because we have worked on everything from techniques to the mental and emotional challenges of fighting. In addition, we also worked on weight training.

In all arenas I greatly appreciate his patience, encouragement, and feedback so the technique can be improved. I can see how regular lessons with him have identified and addressed weaknesses in my game. The 1:1 arena allows me to formulate questions that I wouldn’t otherwise have a chance to ask in a group class.

As someone in their 30/40s I have had problems on and off with my back, neck, shoulders, and wrists. He has worked with me to adjust my game to work within those constraints making sure that I can roll and lift safely. I highly recommend working with him.

I have been taking private lessons from Dave for the past 6 years. Before coming to him I had minimal exposure to MMA or jiu-jitsu; from the start he has been an incredible teacher and mentor who has created a safe, collaborative environment where I have felt capable of growing as an athlete, and as someone who is confident in being able to protect themselves.

I have watched him work with many different students over the years, both individually and in groups, and he has an awesome ability to adjust and individualize his training techniques and goals based on where his students are at and where they are personally seeking to grow.

I would recommend Dave to anyone, at any skill level, wanting to learn more about MMA or jiu-jitsu!

I can’t recommend Dave enough as a coach and personal trainer.

During Jiu-Jitsu and weight training, he was always encouraging and knew how and when to push me to get the most out of every lesson. He helped create a nutrition plan for me, explained each step, and was always willing to answer questions.

I couldn’t ask for a better coach.
