Welcome to Fierce Panda Services — where tradition meets science and martial arts becomes a tool for mastery, growth, and effortless control.

​

With over 51 years of training and a 10th-degree black belt in Ryukyu Kempo, I specialize in teaching Kyusho Jitsu and Tuite Jitsu with scientific precision, anatomical knowledge, and humor.

I’ve taught students of all styles, ranks, and ages — from complete beginners to seasoned black belts — and I’m passionate about making martial arts both powerful and accessible.

🔍 Why Train With Me?

 

🟦 Real Results Without the Hype

You won’t find mysticism or macho nonsense here — just clear, effective tools that work.

 

🧬 Science-Based Approach

I teach using anatomy, neuroscience, and physics to explain how and why techniques work — not just how to perform them.

 

🎯 Customized for You

Whether you’re training for self-defense, personal development, or to bring new tools to your own dojo, I tailor each experience to your goals.

 

😄 Serious Skills, Fun Delivery

I teach like I’m having a good time — because I am. And I want you to feel that too.
