Overview

Bullied at the age of 13, my dad enrolled me in martial arts to learn self-defense. Not only did I earn a black belt, I discovered the Black Belt Excellence I was taught as a martial artist also allowed me to excel as a leader. While every student who came through my schools did not earn a black belt in martial arts, they all learned valuable leadership skills that empowered them to lead themselves and others better. Today, as a 2X martial arts hall of fame Inductee, I am teaching these Black Belt leadership skills to others. Not everyone can be a black belt in martial arts, but anyone can become a Black Belt Leader in Life. You too can be a Black Belt Leader, and I can show you how.
