From obsession to legacy...

With a black belt under Hab Heske at Mach1 Fight Club (M1FC), Daan’s journey started in 2013 and quickly evolved from curiosity to an unshakable obsession.

He now proudly instructs at M1FC and FJJ, where he passes on his knowledge and expertise to the next generation of students taking up the art.

Proving ground to podium.

As a member of the M1FC competition team, Daan has gone head-to-head on some of Australia’s biggest BJJ stages, stacking up an impressive list of titles.

His defining moment? Crushing the competition at the Abu Dhabi Trials with double gold, showcasing his relentless drive and technical mastery.
