Joe is a wealth of knowledge and is able to cater to any skill level! I have a 6 year background in folk style wrestling, and he was able to introduce new techniques and style to take my game to a whole new level.

Coach Joe was knowledgeable and impressive from the start. Very professional but also very patient with me which lord knows I appreciate because no one has ever accused me of being overly athletic :-). Jokes aside though, Joe was at times almost overly patient, there were actually points where Id find myself feeling bad because of how slow he was having to go haha. I can laugh about it now but his willingness to go that slow with me made all the difference in my opinion.
Boxing or some form of fighting sport has been on my to-do list for years. I initially decided to learn how to box after waking up one day and deciding it was finally time for me to take some personal ownership over being able to protect myself at even the most basic level. I am a 24-year-old girl who was by the grace of God able to survive my college years without being sexually assaulted (lord knows we are not all this fortunate) but I chalk that up to pure luck more than anything else because if a situation would have come to pass, I knew nothing at the time that could have helped me get out of that situation. I have always had plans to live in Chicago after college so I decided it was time to finally check this off my to learn list before making the move and I am glad I did. Not that I have had to use my new skills yet but the fact that I know I can makes all the difference in the world.
When I met Joe the first time, I had literally 0 fighting experience at all, and like I mentioned earlier, not only did I have 0 fighting experience but my total athletic experience would be considered minimal by most peoples standards.
Despite this obvious less than ideal starting point, Joe had no problem taking the time to really break down the basics and work with me to lay a solid foundation. Now I have the knowledge to continue working on my fighting skills both on my own or with Joe. What I really loved is that because he knows more than just boxing, he was always happy to teach me self-defense strategies that went way beyond just boxing because he knew that although I came to learn how to box, I really came to learn how to defend myself.
I had no idea what to expect when it came to boxing but I am so glad I decided to call Joe and make this a new part of my life. There is something so freeing about knowing I have some ability to protect myself now. There is also something strangely freeing about knowing exactly what it feels like to get punched. I found that I was way more afraid of the unknown than I was of anything else. Joe gave me the ability to replace those unknowns in my life with things I know and it feels amazing.

Joe was great with my 8 year old son. He learned a ton from Joe! There were some not so nice kids in school my son encountered, but now he has more confidence to deal with them.

Frequently asked questions

1) Set Goals - we will end up setting goals not only for the student just as importantly, goals for the coach (me) as well. This ensures that we both thought about what I need to be doing on a regular basis to ensure the student also reaches their personal goals. My opinion is that too many teachers get so focused on the student's goals that they forget what they need to be doing in order to properly support the goals of the student. This also helps ensure both parties that the coach never accidentally retards the student's progress. Once the goals are set and laid out in clear, clean-cut objectives we can get to work. 

I have competed and trained in combat sports for most of my life. 

I charge between $35 and $50 per hour, the price depends on the frequency the individual decides to train as well as the travel involved. I also normally work out a deal where if the client brings an additional person to train with, the receive 30% off their class and if they bring a second person they recied 50% off, for a third person 75% off. This works out for everyone because not only does the client save money but it also gives the client someone around their skill level and age to practice with.
I was fortunate enough to be good when I competed so people would approach me and ask me to do private lessons. After seeing many of my students excel, it was only natural to continue with it.
I have worked with all age ranges from 5 years old up to 40 year old plus. I also have experience working with both men and women.
You need to be honest with yourself about what your goals and asperations are. Then you need to find someone who can support those goals. Ideally, you should find someone who can show you people who they have helped achieve similar goals to the ones you have set for yourself.
Students need to be honest with the level of time and effort commitment they are willing to make and then once they decide what that is they need to write it down and make a commitment to themselves that they will stick with it. Many times we get all excited when starting something new and set these lofty goals for ourselves that end up being totally unrealistic. Think about what you are trying to achieve and in what time period. Then work your way backward thinking about what kind of effort needs to be realistically made on a monthly, then weekly, and then daily basis in order for you to achieve said goal. If you break your big goals down into a daily effort they become very manageable. A good coach should help you do this.
