" Training with Melanie has been a game-changer for me as a high-level player.

She has an incredible eye for spotting inefficiencies in movement and stroke mechanics, making subtle adjustments that have significantly improved my consistency and power. What sets Melanie apart is her ability to push me beyond my comfort zone while keeping me focused and confident. She brings a great balance of intensity and encouragement, creating an environment where I’m constantly improving without feeling overwhelmed.

Raised in a family steeped in martial arts, I was first introduced to Kung Fu by my uncle, a student of the legendary "Black Dragon" Ron Van Clief, at the age of 11. My passion for martial arts was reignited under the tutelage of Tracy Tyler, a maestro with an impressive 49 years of experience, and a student of Moses Powell. My journey took me to City Wing Tsun, where I dedicated three years, earning a black shirt in Wing Tsun. Eventually, I found Sifu Zig Short, delving into the William Cheung lineage with an intense focus on the Wooden dummy technique. Today, I carry these diverse experiences into my coaching, enriching the boxing practice of my students.
