RESOURCES
As a traditional martial arts instructor with over 35 years experience, I've had an amazing journey. The privilege of witnessing hundreds of people rise up to earn their black belt, has been one of the greatest joys of my professional life.
For me, the best part about traditional martial arts training is that it's not just about physical fitness. It's also about developing important attributes like hard work, self-discipline, respect, humility, and perseverance. Plus, it has practical techniques and universal principles that can help you become smarter, stronger, and more confident.
But, what I love most about martial arts, is its ancient philosophy that's still relevant today. This code or 'blueprint' for success can help people of all backgrounds achieve their personal goals. It's a wonderful practice that's inclusive and accessible to anyone who wants to learn.
What I do
As a personal development coach, my training aims to help individuals build discipline, respect, responsibility, assertiveness, and humility, which are essential for success in all aspects of life.
My approach is holistic and contextualized for applying into real-world circumstances. I provide you with practical tools, strategies, techniques, as well as grounded wisdom, to help you or your child grow and succeed.
My approach involves the expansion of comfort zones, in conjunction with promoting positive thinking, that’s backed by positive action. This combination fosters a ‘growth mindset’ that allows individuals to overcome challenges and live freely, rather than being stuck in survival mode. This mindset is also critical for success in all aspects of life and enables individuals to believe in themselves and their abilities even when faced with adversity.Â
The aim of my various programs is to provide a structured pathway as a means to empower people to become self-reliant, strong, humble and confident.
My Values
I understand first hand how challenging the journey towards personal growth can be.Â
However, I also know that it doesn't have to be a lonely or an insurmountable  journey either.
I believe the way to attain your zenith or ultimate potential, is though a healthy lifestyle, being in tune with your body, your intellect and your emotions.
How you live, how you handle your relationships and understand what it is that drives or inhibits you, is integral for evolving into the best possible version of you. Â
My inclusive training programs can be the genesis of a truly transformational experience.
They've also been designed to create a supportive and inspiring community, where like minded individuals can learn, grow, and thrive together.
