Meet Your Instructors

Daniel Swain Was born and raised in Newport WA. He began his combat sports journey with wrestling at the age of 4. He would continue to wrestle all the way to the college level, where he was able to capture the 2011 NCWA 149lb National Championship. From his national championship, he would go on to fight professionally for 11 years. Over his career, he would collect 20 wins, 17 of which were by Submission or knockout. He recieved his Black Belt in Jiu Jitsu in 2019 from Pablo Alfonso. He is the head wrestling coach for Newport School District and the vice president of a non-profit that oversees all wrestling in our community. He still competes from time to time in Jiu Jitsu competitions and may be making a return to the cage in the future.

Nick Carroll was also born and raised in Newport and is Coach Swain’s younger brother. He began training with Coach Swain when he was 13 years old. Nick has quickly moved through the ranks of Jiu Jitsu. He has won multiple competitions and is an undefeated amateur MMA fighter. Nick is a lifelong combat sports fanatic. He spends his free time reffing professional MMA fights. His desire for knowledge in all aspects of combat sports makes him a fantastic instructor.

I have personally watched people find their confidence through combat sports training. Adversity is a privilege, with combat sports you build adversity into your everyday life.
