About Anthony
With over 20 years in martial arts, Coach Anthony brings a deep, almost poetic perspective to Muay Thai. Inspired by the theatrics of WWF and the choreography of Jackie Chan and Steven Seagal films, Anthony’s love for martial arts began with spectacle—but matured into a lifelong study of form, technique, and philosophy.
Though he has experience competing, Anthony now pours his energy into coaching—treating it as a sacred responsibility. He holds himself deeply accountable for the progress and safety of every student that steps onto his mats.
Teaching Philosophy
To Anthony, Muay Thai is not just a combat sport—it’s a lifelong discipline of movement, timing, and strategy. His focus is on efficiency, body mechanics, and intelligent movement, rooted in the belief that true mastery comes from attention to detail, not brute force.
“No one ever arrives at perfection. We’re all students of the art, forever.”
Anthony instills a mindset of respect, thoughtfulness, and awareness. Defense is never secondary to attack, and his students learn to move with purpose—understanding the “why” behind each motion.

Class Atmosphere
Anthony’s classes are mindful, respectful, and intense. Expect to start with a tough, purposeful warm-up followed by deep dives into technique—layered with thoughtful explanations that feel like a conversation as much as a class. His sessions feel more like a masterclass in intelligent fighting, with an atmosphere that blends hard work, humility, and high-level refinement.
Personality & Approach
Anthony is quietly intense, philosophical, and meticulous. He doesn’t yell—he teaches. He doesn’t hype—he guides. You won’t find a more humble student of the art or a more thoughtful coach.
If you’re looking to see Muay Thai as an art form, a science, and a dance, Coach Anthony is the guide you’ve been waiting for.
