Professor Tala started kick boxing at 12 and western boxing at 17. He would later find Jiu-Jitsu in 1995 while attending the University of Miami Nursing School.  In addition he spent 4 years at Worries Boxing Gym in Hollywood, FL under the coaching of Ben Collins. 

        Now 56 and he continues to train and teach, his goal is to pour all his 40+ years of training martial arts into his students. There is no substitute for knowledge. Quality over Quantity!
