The Titan Leader Team
Ron Cooper
Owner/Lead Instructor
(Purple Belt)
With over 8 years of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training and a 4-stripe purple belt, Coach Ron Cooper brings both experience and purpose to every class at Titan Jiu-Jitsu. A 20-year United States Air Force veteran, Ron built his foundation on discipline, leadership, and camaraderie—values that now shape the culture inside the academy.
Ron began his Jiu-Jitsu journey looking for the same sense of camaraderie he experienced in the military, and he found it on the mats. That mission continues today as he works to build more than just skilled athletes—he’s building a community.
As a competitor and dedicated coach, Ron’s goal is to develop the next generation of grapplers while creating an environment where students of all ages can grow. Whether working with young kids, teens, or adults, he focuses on helping each student gain confidence, resilience, and real skill through structured, purposeful training.
At Titan Jiu-Jitsu, Coach Ron has created a culture where everyone—from complete beginners to competitors—feels safe, supported, and part of something bigger than themselves. His classes emphasize fundamentals, smart progression, and a team-first mindset that keeps students coming back and improving.
Travis Matthews (Blue Belt)
Tiny Titans Coach
Travis began his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu journey nearly two year ago alongside his son, turning a shared interest into a powerful bonding experience. Coming from a Muay Thai background, he initially stepped onto the mats to expand his skill set—but quickly discovered a deep passion for the art.
Now serving as an assistant instructor at Titan Jiu-Jitsu, Travis is dedicated to helping others grow both on and off the mat. He takes pride in guiding students to recognize their potential, build confidence, and work toward their personal goals.
Jiu-Jitsu has become a transformative force in his life, reinforcing the values of humility, respect, and perseverance. Travis believes that through consistent effort and dedication, anyone can achieve more than they ever thought possible
Dan Cafferky (Blue Belt)
Medium Titans Coach
Coach Dan is a Summerville-based business owner and dedicated youth coach with over five years of experience through the YMCA, Town of Summerville, and Titan Jiu-Jitsu. A six-year U.S. Navy veteran, Dan brings discipline, leadership, and a passion for mentorship to every class. He’s also a proud father of three boys—his oldest, Noah, has been training in the Medium Titans program for nearly two years.
