James Austin

Meet James, one of our dedicated kids program coaches. His martial arts journey began at the tender age of 4, sparked by a bullying incident at school. What started as an effort by his parents to boost his confidence and promote healthy activity quickly transformed into a lifelong passion for James.

By the time he reached adulthood, he had notched two trips to the Tang Soo Do World Championships and earned black belts in two separate martial arts disciplines. These achievements provided him with a rock-solid foundation in the art of training and teaching martial arts to children, emphasizing the value of nurturing lifelong martial artists.

In 2021, after a several-year hiatus, James embarked on a new journey in the world of Jiujitsu with Fundamental Jiujitsu, and it was a decision he's never regretted. His enthusiasm for guiding the development of our young members in the kids program is palpable. James is always on the lookout for innovative ways to promote learning and creativity among his students, working closely with Coach Joe to prepare them for a future as leaders in both martial arts and life.
