Loren Johnson

This is Loren Johnson, Loren has been with me since 2002. He is 185 Lb's and is a Purple Belt under Dan "Montana" Delima (Black Belt) since May 05. Loren has background in Folk style wrestling that stretches for over 20 years, as a competitor and a coach. His instructional ability never seizes to amaze me, I am always learning something new from Loren. Anyone who comes to Castillo Jiu-jitsu and trains with Loren gets a thorough knowledge of throws and takedowns, that I am sure surpasses any other school in Wichita. And when Loren combines his wrestling with Jiu-jitsu, LOOK OUT, it is a winning combination.
