About
I have trained and fought in Muay Thai for over 20 years. I want to further the art and pass on the teachings as they were handed down to me by my instructors. Whether it is for competitive purposes, learning the art, self-defense and/or getting a great workout, my goal is to make individuals a better version of themselves everyday by having them do what they once thought was impossible.
Experience:
Muay Thai: 25 years
Boxing: 15 years
Various Martial Arts: 15
I have worked and started various Muay Thai and MMA programs in Hawaii, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and here in Washington.
Seeing how people start to love the art and really immerse themselves in Boxing and Muay Thai brings me great joy. I am love seeing people become better versions of themselves everyday. My main focus is not the physical, but the mental strength, clarity and vision that my students achieve. The physical aspects (muscle tone, self-defense, sport fighting competency) is just the icing on the cake.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
To begin with, I inquire what the student's goals are and what they wish to accomplish by training with me. I would actually have them come with these goals and objectives written down for the 1st lesson. Typically, I have the student warmup, then perform the basic movements of muay thai/kickboxing/boxing through shadowboxing. Once I get a visual of what I am working with, then I look to "clean up" the techniques. Make them "tighter" and more efficient. I do not look to change one's style, but rather to work with it. I seek to build upon a student's strengths and help them develop so as to improve upon their weaknesses.
