David Shin
David first began training through his father in military-style Tae Kwon Do at the age of 5 and continued his education in fitness and martial arts. David holds a second-degree black belt in Tae-Kwon-Do (World Tae Kwon Do Federation) and brings a wide array of experience. Having an extensive background in coaching and administering national and international tournaments, David also takes pride in leading our competition team training for both point and continuous fighting.
After achieving a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, David explored many different types of martial arts including Olympic-style wrestling, Muay Thai, Judo, various weapons training, and street and tactical self-defense.
Fitness has also been a lifelong passion of David’s and this has led him down the path of providing people with a fit and healthy lifestyle through services such as Personal Training, fitness coaching, bootcamp and HIIT sessions.
