Phil arrived at Point Blank with a background in various Martial Arts and hard-hitting sports, including Tae Kwon Do, Muay Thai, Boxing, Jiu-Jitsu, Rugby, Hockey and has been pursuing rough and tumble action for over a decade.
​
A major thing that can follow all these sports are injuries, and knowing that, Phil noticed at Point Blank that training and developing at the right pace were prioritizing over rushed, injury inducing training. Since then, Phil has fallen in love with the teaching style and community at Point Blank, and set his sights on being an instructor here.
Phil is a natural people person, he has assisted coaching various high school teams, and has been working in teams through the construction industry for over a decade. Phil has also been a lifeguard and swimming instructor, has experience teaching children of all ages, teenagers, adults, and the special needs community; and has experience in First Aid and CPR.
His ability to learn, understand, and apply techniques that he's learned with Point Blank and transfer them to students has made him a vital part of our Instructor team. He has competed in Muay Thai amateur fights with Point Blank, and continues his rigorous training to eventually fight again.

Phil is certified to teach Muay Thai, Grappling, MMA and Escrima with a lineage tied to Bruce lee as a 4th Generation Instructor in Jeet Kune Do, and is currently pursing Krav Maga Instructor Certification.
