Doc Small

Brown Belt Jiu Jitsu Instructor

My journey in Jiu-Jitsu began in 2017, and since then, I’ve dedicated myself to mastering the art and sharing that knowledge with others.

In 2020, I stepped into the role of coaching kids in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Watching young minds and bodies grow in confidence, discipline, and skill through martial arts has been an incredibly rewarding experience. In November 2022, I had the privilege of becoming the head kids’ instructor, helping shape the next generation of BJJ practitioners.

My commitment to teaching also extends to adults. I coach adult fundamental classes, focusing on the core principles and techniques of Alliance Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I believe Jiu-Jitsu is more than just a martial art—it’s a way of life that offers lasting physical and mental benefits.

I’ve also tested my skills in competition, earning first-place finishes at Tap Cancer Out and NAGA tournaments. Under the guidance of Leo Nogueira at Alliance Atlanta, I continue to challenge myself, grow as a practitioner, and share the wisdom of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with others. Through dedication, discipline, and a genuine love for the art, I believe we can all achieve greatness both on and off the mat.
