Davis and Powers bring to their teaching a focus on practical, everyday uses for t’ai chi, from health, relaxation, to self-defense. In addition to their regular classes, they have taught and presented at numerous national and international seminars, workshops, colleges, corporations, and conventions, including A Taste of China, the Zhang Sanfeng Festival, and the International Taiji Forum, and have researched, written, and translated extensively on t’ai chi history, practice, and theory.

Karate lays the foundation for future success by providing an environment for children to develop mentally and physically while teaching fundamental values that will guide them later in life.

Through karate classes, children not only develop physically and learn valuable self-defense skills, but they also develop their mental and emotional skills, too.

Martial arts training is the only fitness program that strengthens all aspects of your health and fitness, makes you mentally stronger and teaches you how to protect yourself and your loved ones – and it has been for thousands of years. It is the best-kept secret of total body functional fitness for adults in the world.

Self-defense training is one of the best total body workouts on the planet. Most people start to feel the difference immediately and see physical changes in their bodies within weeks. What most people don’t realize (and can’t see) are the physiological improvements to their internal systems.

4worldlovers: Enrique Muniz was born in Mexico City, Mexico . A byproduct of a broken home, he sought out martial arts as a way of coping with a negative family environment and as a way to change his life. He started martial arts at age 15 in the Polynesian Martial Arts. From there he moved on to train at the IMB Academy Mexico City under Guro Jerry Arrechea where he learned Filipino stick/knife fighting, Muay Thai and Jiu jitsu/grappling. There he fell in love with Jiu-Jitsu, which has been his passion and lifestyle ever since.

He has trained at renowned academies such as Alliance, CheckMat, Marcelo Garcia Academy, Gracie Barra, under many Jiu jitsu greats and World Champions.

Enrique is a black belt and trains under Professor Adrian Ricci of Team Sukata. He has also competed at a high level, having won several national and state tournaments.

A native of Honolulu, Nik began his BJJ journey in 2009 while attending college at the University of Hawaii in Manoa, and received his brown belt in 2019 from Edmund Li ( Sapateiro Bjj), a Nova Uniao black belt. In 2017, Nik moved to Minneapolis to attend the University of Minnesota, and started training at Southside BJJ. It was here that he discovered his passion for teaching as a way to not only empower others but also as a way to give back to an artform that has taught him so much throughout life. Nik recently graduated with his Masters in Security Technologies in 2018 and now works full time for a local security consulting agency here in the Twin Cities. Nik brings with him years of life experience and BJJ techniques, and can relate to students from the university looking to train as well as longtime learners of BJJ looking to get back into the sport.
