Martial Arts Specialty

I train in Muay Thai, Jiu-jitsu, and Capoeira.

How I Started

I was first introduced to Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu by one of my old martial arts instructors, Sam Marcellini, and I’ve loved it ever since. As for Capoeira, it has always been exciting to watch and has a very unique history, so it has always been something I wanted to try. There’s also a positive feeling and sense of camaraderie that you get from Capoeira, that you might not experience with other martial arts.

Skill Level

I have been training at ASG for more than 2 months and I have a white belt with two stripes in Jiu-jitsu.

Tournament Experience

I competed in a karate tournament when I was 10 years old.

Best Training Experience

My best training experience was in Jiu-jitsu when I submit a guy who outweighed me by 100 lbs.

Worst Training Experience

Getting kicked hard in the ribs and having the wind knocked out of me. My ribs were still hurting for 2-3 days after that experience.

Martial Art Heroes

My favorite fighter Gina Carano and other females who excel in male-dominated sports and martial arts because they inspire me to train hard and do my best.

Why I Recommend It 

I would highly recommend these arts. Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is great because it relies more on proper technique and leverage, where you don’t have to worry about your opponent being a lot bigger and stronger than you are.

Muay Thai and Capoeira are both very fun and give you a great workout at the same time.

How Has Training Made a Difference in My Life

It keeps me physically fit, and has been a great confidence builder.
