Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Your protection is number one!
I like to know the student and get an idea of their needs, what they expect, my aim is to make a positive transformation.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a second degree in kempo and a first in taekwondo.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Because the pandemic has shut most of us down and limited my personal training to video, my price will be $20 for 50 minute class. Otherwise
Personal (no more than 4 people)$60 an hr, if you schedule more classes per week they will be $45 phr beyond the first class (for 2 classes per week is 60+45=105 not 120)

How did you get started teaching?
I made the mistake of trying to make people better through commercialized martial arts but in doing so I started a business that I still maintain even after the shut down of my school, I still had students that refused to learn from anyone else so I continued to teach them in private lesson settings, I passed my business cards to rec centers and one day I got an unexpected call from a girls center in need of a self defense instructor for young girls. Moral of the story my failure was just one step to success.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students of all ages youngest i will take after a proficiency test is 4. And oldest is 70.
I have worked with disabilities ranging from paralysis in one arm to limited use of one leg.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Be careful of the term practical selfdefense eyes and groin are not easy targets and limbs are harder to break than you think. You dont need to be a spartan for self defense so you are losing a lot when martial arts becomes a 24 hr fitness hybrid. Standing toe to toe boxing just means the first one to get lucky wins or he that hits harder wins so principles that work for smaller and weaker level the playing field.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Any disabilities? Can you still learn from this instructor, can they work around the disability? What level do you wish to attain? Basic means common attacks but even criminals with more focus and determination cant be stopped with just basics. Do you want some defense against some training. Boxing and taekwondo is pretty common and so is a drunk marine. Most of my students are females getting ready for college. So what kind of attacks do you fear?
