Teaching Since: 2022

Technique of Choice: Downward Elbow

Weapon of Choice: Sword

Jack began training Arakan in 2017 after seeing an ad on Facebook and deciding to give it a try. At the time, he felt directionless and knew something in his life needed to change. His first lesson hooked him, and he fell in love with Arakan.

Surrounded by inspiring mentors, Jack felt a shift in his life. Motivated by his Chief Instructor and primary Instructor, he decided to become an Arakan Instructor and help others achieve positive changes, both mentally and physically.

Jack is lighthearted and passionate about teaching practical self-defense and physical conditioning. He enjoys watching his students grow and strives to get the best from them.

His greatest Arakan achievement so far is grading his Yellow Belt and becoming an Instructor. Outside of Arakan, Jack enjoys painting and spending time with friends and family.

"I have been training with Corey now for over 4 years and initially i started training with him to get some basic fitness. I had my first complimentary lesson with Corey and was show the backfist and how to generate more power to that blow with some "technique". It was amazing to realise the difference in the power of the blow. Corey has since trained me every week since that time and (has patiently) explained everything concisely (many times) to assist my growth with Arakan Martial Art. It was apparent from the outset that Corey was passionate and considerate but his understanding of Arakan enabled him to teach the art at a very understandable level right through to being enabled to grade my first belt.
I now train with Corey to gain greater understanding of the next belt requirements but due to the exposure to Coreys passion and understanding of Arakan, is now not just about grading but more about a journey of learning that is continuous. The health benefits have been great for me personally and I cannot thank Corey enough for what he has helped me to achieve. I highly recommend him as an Arakan Instructor and have entrusted him to start training with my 14 year old son. Again, I see Corey gently working away with him and encouraging him. The benefits of having some knowledge, of what he is being Instructed, only brings us closer and gives us a better bond. Exponentially, my eldest son trains and my youngest daughter has trained for 4 years (this month, Jan 2020) as well, so it really has become a family affair."
