Our approach to self-defense and how we try to imbue the student with the psychological understanding of what real and practical self-defense will it feel like is what brings our approach slightly above all the rest. We try to maintain a reality in our movement and speech so that way our students will not be surprised when they come upon the encounter that takes place with such violence and aggression.

I am dedicated to passing down the teachings of my Masters and instructors that I have had over the years. The mental and spiritual side of martial arts is very important to me. It is so easy to stray toward wanting to know how to fight without the discipline needed in order to be able to fight well.   You are capable of more than you think; I push my students to embody the principles of a true martial artist and prepare them to defend themselves if needed. Work your way up to pro fighter endurance and get a great workout all while learning how to strike with power and proper technique.  ... View Profile
