Fitness Certifications, Associations and Affiliations: NASM National Academy of Sports Medicine Certified ACSM American College of Sports Medicine Certified NASM Certified Weight Loss Specialist USMTA (United States Muay Thai Association) Certified Muay Thai Official WBC (World Boxing Council) Certified Muay Thai Official WARGODS MMA FIGHTS (mixed martial arts) Referee Licensed USA BOXING Coach Background Dave grew up a three-sport athlete (football, basketball, baseball), who prefers “playing” over “watching” sports on TV, with one exception, Boxing. Sugar Ray Leonard, Pernell “Sweetpea” Whittaker, Roy Jones Jr. and especially “Iron” Mike Tyson captured his attention from a young age. Dave watched these boxers growing up, side by side with his father (a former college athlete and 30-year Navy man) every chance he had. In 1999 Dave left his home in the Pacific Northwest with a guitar and his dog, to play music in Los Angeles. He landed in San Diego where he bought a surfboard and never looked back. Education After a year in San Diego, Dave established residency and began putting himself through college with a law degree in mind. In 2000 Dave began training Muay Thai and No-Gi Jiu Jitsu in a professional setting, having his first fight and beginning an impressive undefeated run after just 3 months of training. After 4 years of full-time college including Summers, Dave earned degrees in Political Science and Business Administration with honors. He was accepted to study Law at UCLA, but passed on the acceptance, in order to pursue his newfound love of Thai Boxing. In 2002 Dave became a certified fitness professional through the National Academy of Sports Medicine and shortly after, in 2003 Coach Dave started American Boxing and Fitness. Fun Fact! With his comprehensive knowledge of Muay Thai, take-downs, striking and submissions, Kru Dave has had his expertise called-on as an Expert Witness in a California Murder Trial! SEAL Team 1 training with Kru Dave at American Boxing in Pacific Beach San Diego SEAL Team 1 training with Kru Dave at American Boxing. (Faces have been removed for security purposes.) Kru Dave has worked with a number of military Special Forces, Border Agents, FBI and other government officials to keep their hand-to-hand combat training up-to-date. Dave has shown that his technical knowledge of Muay Thai and Grappling allow him to marry his real-world self-defense experience and produce a superior hand-to-hand combat system. Observe, Evaluate and Execute, is the process, that allows his competition and self-defense students to be highly effective.
