I started my martial arts training at 17 years old. After 8 years I achieved my first black belt and began teaching and have done so for the past 27 years.
As a martial arts teacher, I have found my calling. I help people, young and old, achieve their personal best in all areas of their life. It is through the teachings of the martial arts that we improve our self-esteem, confidence, focus and physical fitness. I see what I teach as "fitness with a function". I help others achieve mental clarity and perseverance and the ability to protect themselves and others.
Personally, I competed professionally for 10 years, was a police officer for 14 years and a loss prevention area manager for over 15 years. I have 3 great kids and a grandson and put tremendous value on how the martial arts has and is impacting their lives. I do my best to be a role model to them as to the benefits of a life committed to constant and never ending personal improvement.
