Hoi Wah Ho

Coach, Program Director

Hoi Wah started martial arts in the 2000s and has trained and competed all over the world (Canada, United States, Hong Kong, China, Thailand) as a Muay Thai kickboxer and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighter.

Hoi comes from a traditional martial arts background including Traditional Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate, Olympic-style Taekwondo (achieving Black Belts in both disciplines), and is an avid Kung Fu practitioner who studies Wing Chun (Ving Tsun) and Hung Gar Kuen.

Since the 2010s, he has trained in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) disciplines including Boxing, Muay Thai, Kickboxing, Wrestling, Sanda / Sanshou (Provincial Champion), and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (Purple Belt). He has had experience training with professional MMA / UFC fighters and coaches including Khai “The Shadow” Wu, Steven “The Ninja” Nguyen, world-renowned Judo & BJJ Black Belt Dave Camarillo, and other Black Belts from different martial arts disciplines.

He has a combined martial arts experience of over 20+ years and still continues to train and compete today. While he has won numerous tournaments, his true passion is to inspire others on the path of martial arts.

As a Martial Arts Coach, he hopes to pass on the martial arts philosophy and values such as respect, honour, and discipline, while helping his students build self-esteem, self-defense skills, physical conditioning, and mental strength.

As the Program Director, he is responsible for planning and producing scientifically sound training programs for members to maximize training efficiency, progression of skills, and athletic performance.
