What Our Students Say
Hear from our community about how training at our academy has impacted their lives.
Dagoberto Rodriguez
"We have been training with Coach Dante Herrera for the past 8 years, and we couldn’t be more grateful to have him as part of our journey. My kids, my brother, and I all train under his guidance, and he has had a tremendous positive impact on each of us. Coach Dante is not only incredibly knowledgeable in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, but he is also a genuinely kind and humble human being. His ability to teach, motivate, and support students of all ages and skill levels is truly remarkable. He creates an environment where everyone feels welcome, respected, and encouraged to grow both on and off the mats. Beyond the techniques and skills he teaches, Coach Dante’s character shines through in everything he does. He leads by example, demonstrating the values of discipline, perseverance, and respect every single day. We feel very lucky to be part of his team and cannot recommend him enough to anyone looking for a world-class coach and mentor. Thank you, Coach Dante, for everything you do!"
Akmal Nasimov
"My two children (14 and 8) and I have been training with coach Dante for 5.5 years and I cant say enough how lucky we are to have come across this dojo! Not only Dante has an absolutely amazing environment that promotes respect, discipline, and friendship among all the trainees young and seasoned alike, he also personally cares for the success of each student. This is rare as we have tried multiple dojos but it felt like it was just business for them. For Dante teaching martial arts seems to be the way of life and his path to do good for the community - not just a subscription based business trying to sell you yet another belt. He’s a black belt under Hoyce Gracie so he is technically brilliant in bjj, and on top of that, he is a black belt in taekwondo and knows about a whole range of martial arts and their philosophies. My entire family has greatly benefited from Dante’s deep expert knowledge of jiujitsu because we have learned a great deal on how to defend ourselves against various real life situations including dealing with bullies and potential street attacks. Under his guidance my children improved enough to successfully compete in the local bjj competitions. I can also definitively say that over the years he made major contributions to the best qualities in my children such as discipline, perseverance, attention to detail, respect, and courage. As a result of his classes we all feel more confident, accomplished, and optimistic about the future because Dante keeps finding ways to keep things nice and fresh. Another huge plus is that Dante’s entire family is involved. His wife coach Kelsey is also a very accomplished martial artist and plays a crucial role in all the preparations for competitions as she regularly competes herself at the highest level. His children train along other students and his son is a role model for his peers because he’s extremely good at bjj and mma for his age. Overall, Martial Arts on the Go has been basically a godsend for our family and we plan to stick with it for a long time!"
Marcia Gomes
"A neighbor recommended Coach Dante’s Summer Camps last year, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made! My boys, ages 8 and 6, are enrolled in both the weekly program and the summer camp with Coach Dante and Coach Antonio, and they absolutely love it. The coaches are flexible, patient, and not only focus on martial arts training but also emphasize both of my kids to be good people. I wholeheartedly recommend it!"
Zu Harter
"From assessment to our last day, Martial Arts on the go was consistent in their philosophy which (for the little ones – in our case) is one of discipline, self-respect, and respect to others. Coach Dante and his team are professional, knowledgeable, empathetic, and patient. You can tell they love what they do and love working with children. Our child enjoyed the time there and looked forward to going back every time. I strongly recommend Martial Arts on the go, I know that you will not regret joining this team."
