Dartanian Jiu-Jitsu

Sep 2021

This is where it all started for me. I knew my family would benefit from BJJ but not to the degree of being able to crossing over into adding value in mind, soul and body. Professor Dartanian Bagby is extremely passionate and knowledgeable in BJJ. He teaches with precise accuracy. This is special because whether you are a first time learner or someone with years of experience- he will help you bring up your game and confidence considerably. When you find your way to training with Professor D, know that is a special and unique gift.

This a great school for all levels, especially if you're new, as Professor Dartanian takes a special interests in white belts to ensure they learn proper technique. I started as a white belt last September in 2018. Professor always told me, “Mason you need to slow down and practice what I’m teaching, so you don’t get hurt.” I’m still working on that:), but he gave me my blue after 7 months of training. I would highly recommend this academy to anyone looking to get into Brazilian Jujitsu or to continue their training.

Dartanian does not charge for belt promotions. In fact, the opposite of F.Klink's comment is true; individuals who are only interested in being promoted will leave the academy because they are being "held back."...read full review
