Lineage: Mitsuyo Maeda > Carlos Gracie > Helio Gracie > Royler Gracie > Omar Salum > Roger Carpenter > Dwight Kelly II

My name is Dwight and I have been involved in martial arts since 2004. I started training in jiu-jitsu in 2009 at 10th Planet Riverside under Sean Bollinger. I spent three years with that school and receiving my blue belt in 2010 from Sean. After the closure of the school, I found Checkmat in Hesperia, California, and spent the next four years there refining my skills in gi. After my move from the high desert, I found myself in Hemet, California, and started training at Gracie-Humaita where I earned my purple belt. I later earned my brown belt from Roger Carpenter at Fight Sports. I earned my black belt in San Soo in 2013 after five years of daily training and commuting. I currently train in that combative martial art system where I focus primarily in firearms tactics and knife defense.
