and real world experiences have helped enhance his training methods for his students. They don’t learn from an instructor
that sits behind a desk all day but from an experienced combatant.
Henry is one of the most humble
masters in the martial arts today. He says his greatest interest within the arts is the internal/spiritual aspect. This led
him to studying Reiki and becoming a Reiki Master. When Henry was asked what his greatest accomplishments were he said; stand
up Comedian for 2 years, 4 years as a professional baseball player, learning classical guitar, proud owner of the worlds 2
greatest dogs Maggie (aka Mag Mag/Wawa) and Chloe (aka Coco/Cokie Dokes) and meditating on the hills in Sedona, Arizona.
