Daniel Pagan began martial arts training at the age of 10 in Tae Kwon Do. After attaining his black belt in the art, he joined the New York Alliance of Guardian Angels, a neighborhood watch group based in New York City. It was during this time that he began to appreciate and pursue reality-based martial arts.
In 1993, he opened the Dragon Institute of Combative Martial Arts, teaching his own blend of the 4 Ranges of Combat. Students from this era have gone on to open their own dojos, win national championships, and excelled in various arts.
Dan Pagan has competed in various rulesets and was ranked #3 in the world by the International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation (IBJJF) at purple belt. He has also competed in early NHB and taken part in numerous “challenges”. Today, he still enjoys competing and refereeing and teaches BJJ at Evolutionary Martial Arts in Hackettstown, NJ.
