COMPASSIONATE
With a decade of experience in coaching, Senpai Baden has a very passionate approach to training and loves the opportunity to help people reach their goals. Completing a sports coaching certificate at age 14 and getting a first hand taste of mentoring at a young age, he has learnt to utilise his strengths to help his players and students get the best out of themselves. With many years of experience in his martial arts training and extensive knowledge of team sports, specifically Aussie Rules football and after playing and coaching that sport from a young age, Senpai Baden decided to turn to training and coaching martial arts full time. Senpai Baden communicates very effectively creating an engaging and interesting learning environment each time the class hits the mat!
