Biography:
I began my journey in martial arts at the tender age of 7 years old and never looked back. Since then I’ve studied a number of different arts ranging from the more traditional styles (Kenpo, Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido) and more recent iterations like Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Krav Maga. I’ve found through my journeys in the martial arts that the style is secondary to the individual and that each art has something beneficial to offer and it is up to the student to decide which one best suits their needs. For me those styles are Jiu Jitsu and Krav Maga with my primary art being Jiu Jitsu. My goal is to try and break down the complexities of the art into bite size pieces that are more easily digestible for the average individual that may not have the natural athleticism that some people appear to be blessed with. I hope that whatever path you chose you find what you are looking for.
