My journey into the world of martial arts began at the age of 12. Having developed an early fascination with Saturday morning Kung Fu theatre, Iknew I had to obtain the skills portrayed in those films. I then convinced my family to enroll me in a local Karate studio and thefascination quickly grew into a passion.
I have spent the past 30 plus years studying various arts that include Okinawan karate, Japanese jiu-jitsu, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, Krav Maga, Filipino Blade Arts, Mixed Martial Arts andnow Yang Taijiquan. Ifeel fortunate to have been able to study under the tutelage of so many great martial arts instructors.

I look forward to the continued growth and health benefits I’ve experienced from Yang Family Taiji,as well as, the ability to help others through the knowledge that has been shared with me.
