MMA with IMPACT.

Born in Campos dos Goytacazes, Rio de Janeiro, João began his Jiu Jitsu journey at just 14—and never looked back. Now a 2nd degree black belt and decorated international competitor, he has earned World and European titles, winning at elite tournaments across Brazil and Europe.

With over a decade of coaching experience in 12 countries, João brings a global, forward-thinking approach to every class. Raised in the iconic Nova União team—home to multiple UFC and Bellator champions—he developed a deep, well-rounded foundation in Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, boxing, wrestling, judo, and MMA.

More than just a technician, João lives and teaches the values of respect, humility, and discipline. Whether guiding beginners or advanced athletes, he inspires every student to unlock their full potential and become the strongest, most unstoppable version of themselves. As IMPACT’s Head Coach for MMA, João is also the main point of contact for our students—guiding them through their journey and standing beside them to support them at tournaments and competitions.

He then built his striking in Muay Thai and fought successfully in several Swiss cities. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu followed, and he holds a purple belt in it today.

That covers what MMA is made of: punches and kicks standing up, control on the ground, and the transition in between. He teaches it the same way — technique, timing and tactics rather than raw power.

Nathan takes the sport seriously, himself less so. The tone in his classes is relaxed, the standard for technique is not. He competes himself and has never stopped learning.

Laszlo was born into a Hungarian family in Transylvania and began wrestling at just seven years old. At the age of 14, he moved to Budapest to train at the Olympic training center and pursue his career at the highest level. There, he became a Romanian national champion, a multi-time medalist in Hungary, and competed successfully at international tournaments in both Greco-Roman and freestyle wrestling.

For twelve years, Laszlo competed for the "Hornets" in the German Bundesliga—not only becoming an exceptional athlete, but also evolving into an outstanding coach. His protégés became German team champions and shone at international competitions. Since 2023, Laszlo has lived in Switzerland and enriched the coaching team at Impact Fight Club with his experience, discipline, and uncompromising pursuit of excellence. His wrestling is precise, his coaching profound, and his values clear: perseverance, humility, and respect.

Those who train with Laszlo learn from a true master—and grow beyond themselves, both physically and mentally.

At the age of 15, Dario from Zurich stepped into the boxing ring for the first time. What began as youthful curiosity quickly developed into a true passion. Over the years, Dario honed his boxing skills and gained valuable experience as an amateur boxer. But his drive for growth led him further – to Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ).

Fascinated by the tactical depth of this martial art, BJJ became Dario’s great passion. He traveled the world, trained with the best, and continuously improved his skills. Soon, he sought new challenges and entered the MMA cage, competing both as an amateur and as a professional.

His dedication paid off: In 2021, Dario earned his black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He remains active today, competing successfully in international tournaments – including podium finishes at the European Championships.

Dario is a role model for anyone who strives for continuous self-improvement.
