Prof. Dionathan Santos (Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu)

began my Jiu-Jitsu journey in Brazil and have been teaching in the United States for over a decade. I trained and taught at Gracie Barra North Phoenix (GB North America Headquarters), contributing to official curriculum and instructor training materials used worldwide. In Tyler, TX, I launched the city’s first women-only Jiu-Jitsu program, creating a safe and empowering space for women and families. Today, I serve as Head Coach at Gracie Barra Tyler and help lead expansion projects across the Dallas–Fort Worth area, including Gracie Barra Highland Village. My focus is simple: structured training, strong fundamentals, discipline, confidence, and real results — whether for kids, adults, beginners, or competitors. If you’re looking for professional instruction with proven leadership and international experience, you’re in the right place.
