ABOUT ME

I’ve been on the martial arts path since I was 9 years old.

At 15, I earned my black belt in American Karate—and immediately stepped into my first role as an instructor. What started as a job quickly became a calling. For the next seven years, I lived in the dojo: teaching classes, mentoring students, running camps, and helping people grow both on and off the mat.

After a short break, I returned to Georgia with a renewed focus—continuing to train, teach, and expand my knowledge across multiple disciplines. I started diving into the world of health and fitness by working as a Personal Trainer at Crunch. All the while I continued to work as a Taekwondo and Karate instructor. When I wasn't training students or clients, you could find me either studying to deepen my understanding of the human body and exercise methods or training on the mat in Yoshukai or Shotokan karate.

Currently my goals are to become Yoga certified and level 6 Muy Thai certified.


My Approach

Martial arts isn’t just about techniques—it’s about understanding why they work.

My coaching blends:

  • Traditional martial arts (kata, discipline, structure)

  • Practical self-defense applications

  • Strength and conditioning

  • Modern training science

Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced martial artist, my goal is simple:
help you move better, get stronger, and become more confident—inside and outside of training.


What I’m Building

I’m not just teaching classes—I’m building something bigger.

The long-term vision is a hybrid martial arts academy and training facility:
a place where you can train like an athlete, learn like a martial artist, and grow like a student of the craft.

As I continue advancing toward black belt in Shotokan and Yoshukai Karate, I’m also expanding into new areas like grappling, mobility, and performance training—so my students always get a complete system.


Train With Me

If you’re ready to take your training seriously—whether that’s martial arts, fitness, or both—you’re in the right place.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need martial arts experience to start?

Not at all. Each program is designed to meet you where you are. Whether you’re a complete beginner or a returning martial artist, you’ll be guided through each step.

Can I earn belts or ranks online?

Yes! Both the Fearless Taekwondo and Kandaryu programs offer belt progression. You’ll submit videos for review and receive personalized feedback — plus a certificate of achievement upon passing each level. However, a gi/belt will need to be purchased separately. We only ship out custom black belts upon passing your first degree.

How does testing work?

You can either test live via Zoom, submit a video unlisted on YouTube or through email. In person testing is available if you are in the Atlanta area.

How long do I have to wait between testing?

The minimum requirement for all colored belts are at least a month (unless you have previous experience).

How long will it take for me to get my black belt?

If you’re starting from scratch, Kandaryu and Fearless Taekwondo are 18 month programs.

What if I already have previous experience, could I test into a belt rank?

Of course! Simply submit the video requirements for each belt rank and I will examine and let you progress through whatever rank is needed at a faster rate. It is important to know since Kandaryu is such a unique blend of Okinawan and Japanese traditional karate, and has a substantial amount of material to cover, we usually don’t allow advancement past Purple Belt.

What is Kandaryu?

It’s a custom kata-based system created by Sensei Stann — a fusion of Okinawan Shorin Ryu, Shotokan and Yoshukai karate that honors traditional forms while evolving through history and practice. The name comes from the Irukanada vine that is native to Okinawa and can be found growing in Japan as well. Thus, this style honors the ever evolving path of martial arts while still honoring the roots.

You’ll learn both original Okinawan kata and modern Japanese versions as well as the history and applications.

How does MMA Personal Coaching work?

You’ll receive workout programs and nutrition guidance perfectly tailored to your individual needs and goals. Clients I have will have access to my number, email and Zoom. I want to be by your side at every step motivating and checking in. It’s 100% flexible to your goals, and can be purely fitness, fight-focused, or both.

What equipment do I need?

For most lessons, you only need comfortable clothes and enough space to move. A mat is helpful, and for MMA coaching, small dumbbells or resistance bands may be recommended — but I’ll guide you through everything.

What if I have injuries or physical limitations?

As a certified personal trainer and corrective exercise specialist, I can help you modify movements and build a program that works for your body. Just let me know during sign-up.

Do you offer in-person or local training?

Yes — if you're located in or near the Atlanta, GA area, I offer in-person options including:

* Private 1-on-1 sessions

* Group classes (space-limited)

* On-location training at my studio, your home, or a gym

Just use the contact form or message me directly to ask about availability, pricing, or how it can be combined with your online training plan.

What’s the cancellation policy?

You can cancel your membership anytime. No contracts, no pressure — just training on your terms. Just be sure to give two weeks notice before the next payment is due.
