Michael Swann

Coach Mike was born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, and moved to Washington 9 years ago.  He started training jiu-jitsu 5.5 years ago as a way to connect with others and find something fun and meaningful to do.

Coach Mike teaches using a constraints-led approach, incorporating live games every Monday at noon.  What he loves most about jiu-jitsu is the community and the connections built on the mats.

To any student or parent, Coach Mike would say that jiu-jitsu helps you learn more about who you are and what you are made of.  With consistency and time, jiu-jitsu can help shape you into a stronger and better person.
