He is also a licensed psychotherapist with nearly 20 years of experience.  His whole life has been dedicated towards helping others grow, overcome adversity and learn the strategies to living a fulfilling life. He combines his knowledge of how the mind-body connection works and his knowledge of grappling to assist his students to achieve whatever goals they set for themselves.
