About Danny

Danny is the lifeblood of Mackay MMA. With his heart of gold, arms of steel, and infectious enthusiasm, he’ll encourage you to keep showing up day after day, year after year. With 14 years of coaching under his belt(s!), you’re in safe hands the moment you walk through the door.

After being shown BJJ after a spinal injury that left him paralysed from the waist down, Danny has been hooked. In his own words, BJJ saved him and got him back to being 100%. It’s this passion for the sport that he hopes to share with everyone that comes to one of his classes.
