Teaching Experience

I have been teaching martial arts at several different schools since 1992. I have done seminars at schools in the Austin and San Antonio area since 2005.

Outside of martial arts, I have worked for non-profit companies that go into inner city school to teach. I have also worked for a non-profit company teaching and training individuals with disabilities and/or special needs for several years. I have done educational presentations at a state jail for inmates who were to be released within 6 months. I have taught at two different kids summer camps, in the past. 

I have also been teaching at ACC as an assistant as well as an instructor since 1992. My overall teaching experience has been with children as young as 3 (outside of ACC) to adults in their mid 60s. I have worked with individuals with special needs as well as those who have had disabilities who have also taught me many things over the years. 

In Material Arts, I hold 5th degree black belts in in two different styles. A 5th degree is Master's level.

I was awarded Senior Instructor/Master Level Instructor certification in April of 2023, as well as a Leadership Award.
