About

Salutations from Inner Strength Academy in Red Oak, Texas. I have been in the martial arts systems for over 40 years, and enjoy sharing the knowledge and wisdom I was given from some very knowledgeable teachers during my journey in the martial sciences. I have been blessed to have studied with first generation masters of traditional Jujitsu, Kenpo Karate, Kung Fu San Soo, Taijiquan, Wu Wei Gung Fu and Systematic disciplines and now wish to pass them along.

My primary focus is aid you in personal growth, empowerment, and self-confidence. The skills that will be shared with you will and focus on is Personal Self-Protection and Awareness of your environment, and suited and tailored to fit you.

My approach is a one to one, or if you wish a partner or up to a foursome who share the same goals. And this is to ensure that personal attention, and training is given to you and or your group, so as guide you or again your group through the journey with expert care.

The environment is casual, so no need for uniforms or belts, however your skills will be tested after a twenty class slot has been completed.

Inner Strength Academy is committed to helping you unlock your potential in a supportive and motivating environment. As I stated earlier, my background is in true and real martial arts, and are not sport oriented, they are for survival of personal altercations, whether they are on the street or in board room.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

To let them know that there is no set patterns, nature rules, and balance is the key.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

My training and practice in martial arts is well over 40 years, and have been blessed to have trained and study with some very knowledgeable masters in both traditional Asian Arts and Military CQC systems along with studies in Psychology and Corporate Communications in im college studies.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

My standard fees are as follows; $100 per lesson - single, $175 per lesson for 2 persons or $300 per lesson for 4 people. I don’t do more than 4 students at a time.

How did you get started teaching?

Started teaching with my Kenpo Instructor in 1988 until he gave over to me the school in 1990. I throughly enjoyed teaching publicly for many years, until the late fall of 1997, and decided to close up and enjoy studying alone with my senior black belt and to spend more time with my wife, children and now my grandchildren. But I do and will teach privately to selective and serious clientele in my small and private garage studio.

What types of students have you worked with?

I have taught and worked with various individuals along with women's church groups. I have also worked with children, home school groups, law enforcement, and military personnel. I have had the great pleasure and gift in working with physically and visually challenge individuals, troubled youth programs, as well as fostered children programs.

Describe a recent event you are fond of.

My grandchildren coming to me and asking for me to teach them.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?

Do your homework, and don’t follow fads; just because they say it’s the best or your going to be the next hot martial arts movie star, don’t fall for fluff.

What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?

Am I going to finish what I start? Am I willing to put the time in? Do I have to sign a contract. (If so, walk away)
