I was first introduced to the world of Martial Arts, while living in Mexico, I started training Tae Kwon Do under Master Juan Armando Acosta of the Flying Dragon Tae Kwon Do School at the age of 8 or 9, but only trained for a year or two, since my whole family move to Houston, TX.
I returned to Martial Arts in the year 2000, but this time training Muay Thai under Kru Pong, one of the toughest yet nicest trainers I’ve ever met, but not very long after that I took up Tae Kwon Do once again, I earned my black belt at the “Flying Dragon Tae Kwon Do School” under Grandmaster Yong Kyu Yu who is a 9th Dan Black Belt, and a former student of Grandmaster Byung Jick Ro (founder of the Song Moo Kwan in Korea). Training with master Yu taught me not only in the physical part, but also the mental and spiritual aspect of Tae Kwon Do.
I now train Tae Kowon Do and Hap Ki Do at UMA Tae Kwon Don in Sugar Land, under Grandmaster J.K. Choi.
I’m also the owner of Nine Dragons Martial Arts (www.ndmartialarts.com) a company that sells martial arts equipment online, mainly just Muay Thai gear at this time.
