About Daniel

Since 2007, Daniel has been bringing his unique dialed-in energy and a hell of a lot of heart to the martial arts and fitness community. As a Muay Thai fighter, he has won championships and tournaments. As a Muay Thai coach, he has produced world champions on the international stage. Today, even with a decade of amazing success, he shows no signs of slowing down.

But, Daniel was not always a top tier athlete and coach… in fact, as a teen he was bullied for his weight, and lack of confidence.

Growing up in New Jersey as an immigrant from Argentina, Daniel was forced to learn how to defend himself from an early age. On top of learning a new language and cultural norms, he was also an easy target for bullies for being overweight.

But adversity breeds strength, and this experience ignited a passion for self-defense as Daniel turned to martial arts right out of high school. He quickly developed the fitness of a fighter, but it was within the walls of the dojo that he discovered the REAL virtues of martial arts: those of respect, discipline, integrity, and humility.

Today, Daniel crosses the country and flies around the world sharing the life-changing power of martial arts.

With a no-nonsense approach to life, Daniel gravitated early on towards Muay Thai, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, sports with little ornamental movement and where every technique has intent.

Now, with a career that spans almost 15 years, those in the field consider him an expert at his craft and he is more dedicated than ever to bring ALL his experience, knowledge, and energy to the students he serves and the greater global Muay Thai community…. until the wheels come off.
