He’s Back! Kru Shawn K. Carpenter, owner and
head instructor of Warrior's Realm Muay Thai &
MMA Academy has just completed another leg of learning
on his never-ending quest to offer the best Muay Thai
and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) instruction possible.
Carpenter spent the past week in Las Angeles training
with MMA legend Bas Rutten, the man considered “the
best martial artists in the world,” by Black
Belt magazine.
|
“It is very exciting to train with
one of the very best MMA instructors in the world,” states
Carpenter, “it is a great honour and privilege to now
be authorized to teach his system.”
While specializing in authentic Muay Thai under the legendary
Grandmaster Toddy, Carpenter had recently expanded his schools
curriculum to include MMA. Mixed Martial Arts combines the
disciplines of Muay Thai, Greco-Roman wrestling, Brazilian
Jujitsu, and Submission Grappling. Whether used as a supplementary
workout, a way to round out one’s self-defense arsenal,
or a method of competition, Mixed Martial Arts trains the
practitioner to be a well-rounded martial artist. Kru Shawn
has spent the last four years training specifically in MMA
(along with regular Muay Thai training under Toddy) with long-term
coach, Jodey Ingalls of Pure Self Defense in Campbell River.
Martial Arts is a path of honour, courage,
discipline, and loyalty, as much as it is about fitness and
self-defense. It is a journey of self-discovery and improvement,
thus the reason for Carpenter’s latest excursion.
“I’ve always been a fan of Bas,”
he relates, “and it felt like the right and natural
direction for me and my school.” Carpenter is now certified
and licensed as a Bas Rutten MMA system trainer, with exclusive
rights to Vancouver Island. Carpenter is anticipating returning
to LA in six months time to take his first instructor level
testing, before continuing on to the second level course.
What does this mean for students of Warrior's Realm Muay Thai
& MMA Academy? Expansion. It means an expanded MMA program
with more classes, a very clear and methodological progressive
grading system, the backing of Bas Rutten, access to exclusive
seminars/seminar leaders, up-to-date info, techniques and
training methods, equipment and apparel, and much more!
“We are very excited!”
emphasizes Kru Shawn
