My name is Brian Keith Banks and I am Personal Trainer for Fit-Defense MMA. For over 40 years I have acquired knowledge studying both traditional based martial arts and cross training in other combative systems; from which I have a 5th Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo under 9th Degree Black Belt, Grand Master Brad Whitlow with Juk-Ahm, a Blue Belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu under 2nd Degree Black Belt, Professor Victor Emanuel with Gracie Barra, Phase 1 in Jeet Kune Do under Sifu/Guru Raymond Crow, and I have been cross training in Kali & Muay Thai. I began to slowly reinvent and transition myself from teaching traditional based martial arts, and I started developing my own personal expression towards a more practical approach to personal protection; where one can become Fit by learning Movement and Self-Defense applications, while becoming more Spiritually connected through martial arts. As a Personal Trainer for Fit-Defense MMA, my sole purpose is in helping others reach their full potential by developing a Warrior Mindset of a complete lifestyle that is centered around Health, Fitness, Self-Defense and having Peace Of Mind.
