I received special training in hand to hand combat and weapons techniques. I continued my martial arts training through out the United States and overseas during my tour of duty. In 1982, while still active in the Marine Reserves I enrolled into Nichols State University where I began studying Hapkido under the instruction of Master Jae Man Lee . I later became an assistant instructor under Master Lee. In 1985 I had the opportunity to study Tai Chi under the direction of the United States International Tai Chi team coach in Slidell.
Nothing is more rewarding than working with kids.
