PROFESSOR MEL DORAN
Professor Mel Doran began training in 2008 studying taekwondo, street self defence and kick boxing.

In 2009 after taking her first Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu class she knew she had found her path to becoming a better version of herself. In 2016 Mel joined the Gracie Barra family teaching adults and kids programme at Gb Arnold and Gb Nottingham under the instruction of her professor – World Champion, Victor Estima.

In 2018 Mel achieved a big step on her Jiu-Jitsu journey she was graded to black belt one of only 16 females at that time in UK to achieve this level. In June 2021 professor Mel was promoted to 1st degree black belt by professor Victor Estima.

Her dream is to share Jiu-Jitsu with as many people as possible and help build a better brighter future.
