Coach Pete
This sport has given so much to me. I've met and had the pleasure of working for and alongside the greatest people. I've been blessed with the opportunity to have helped many of them realize goals they set when they first stepped through the doors of the gym. I believe that martial arts has something for everyone - fitness, skill acquisition, enhancing our ability to focus and set goals, self-defense, confidence-building, a sense of community. It can be anything that you want it to be. I want Valour's students to know that I will be their #1 fan - I want them to succeed not only on the gym floor but in their studies and careers.
