Devin Roth

Devin is originally from Honolulu, Hawaii. Like many from the islands, his interest in martial arts was sparked by BJ Penn’s UFC championship run. He remained an un-trained casual fan until he made a New Year’s Resolution to do something hard, something that challenged and honestly frightened him. That’s when Devin started training at Rogue Combat Club.

At first, he was just happy to have a physical hobby to do when it was too cold or rainy for mountain biking. Then his whole lifestyle changed. Devin found his increasingly rare third space. Community. Friends. Tribe. His training partners became much more than that. Soon enough the BJJ nerd in him emerged and after realizing he had only rode his mountain bike maybe 3 times in a year, he sold it and went all-in on Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Devin has been blessed to have 2 hobbies in his life that keep him healthy.

He hopes to show others that staying healthy can be fun, and that a third space is incredibly valuable in this digital age. If you see Devin on, or off the mats, say "hi!" and he’ll geek out with you about something, jiu jitsu or not (He makes a great trivia night team member!).
