About Us

We don’t teach from the sidelines.
We live this…every single day.

For over 20 years, we have walked the same tightrope as our students:
running a business, raising a family, showing up when life got loud, stressful and unpredictable.

Alan and Cheryl built EMPIRE together…side by side.
Not as a theory. As a necessity.

Health, balance and energy aren’t trends to us.
They are survival skills.

That is why our mission is simple:
to empower, educate and motivate adults who are done drifting and ready to own their strength…physically and mentally.

That is the EMPIRE WAY.

And when our students tell us they can’t wait for class?
That is what reminds us we are doing it right.

Meet Alan

I’m Alan.

I’ve been training in Martial Arts for over 51 years.
Not because I had to…but because I needed to.It started with being bullied. I didn’t want revenge.
I wanted confidence.

Once I found it, everything changed.

That mindset carried me from commission-based grind…
to corporate leadership…to building EMPIRE…without shortcuts. Only discipline.

Yes, I have earned multiple Black Belts.
But the first one?
That one saved my life.

I’ve used these lessons everywhere…
in the dojo, in boardrooms and in moments when things got real.

Today, my goals are simple:
longevity, vitality and leading from the front.

I don’t ask students to do anything I won’t do myself.
I train with them. Right beside them.

Because this isn’t about looking good.
It’s about living strong.

If you feel that pull…that quiet voice telling you you are meant for more,
then let’s get to work.

Cheryl and I are here to serve you, ready to help you reclaim your power and live stronger every day.

Real Life. Real Training.
