Rudy Gillespie

Rudy Gillespie (Jason Earles) a 3rd degree blackbelt and the sensei - also, more recently, manager - of the local Bobby Wasabi Martial Arts Academy and the second-in-command of The XD Squad, Rudy was a top amateur martial artist until being sidelined by an injury; he remains as competitive as they come. He's a lifelong fan of Bobby Wasabi, and keeps posters of all the man's movies around the dojo. Rudy has used his entire life's savings to become co-owner of the BWMAA chain, and takes fierce pride in the fact.[6] Despite his wacky nature and sometimes-gross sense of humor, he's a very good (if unorthodox) karate instructor who genuinely identifies with his students...and who's always ready to back them up when rough times get rougher. His last name, Gillespie, was first revealed in "It Takes Two To Tangle." In Kickin It On Our Own, he sells the dojo but gets it back after winning a fight against Kofi Kingston.
