At the age of 22, Brian opened his own business: the Academy of Martial Arts. Lodged in the back of the old Brampton mall, with a meager 600 square feet, his entrepreneurial drive brought his enterprise to the most renowned martial arts school in Brampton. 25 years later, with 3 locations in Brampton and 5 more in the GTA, Brian has turned to his next challenge – Life Coaching.
Brian’s 25 years as a martial arts instructor and business owner, has taught him more than running a company. Over twenty thousand students have entered the Academy’s doors. Brian guided these people, not only in their martial arts training, but in life, coaching them to achieve personal and professional goals, and supporting them to become the better version of themselves. 25 years of teaching, also equates to 25 years of managing his staff. Brian has worked with many teams, optimizing their relationships to yield the highest results, both as individuals and units accomplishing goals.
Brian understands the quest for balance between professional and personal success. His own coaching journey helped him discover this. In his capacity as a Life Coach and Adler Faculty, Brian appreciates how these skills can help others discover this balance too.
