Bryan David Donovan is a martial art professional, coach, and mentor who is passionate about cultivating success out of motivated individuals through his expertise and knowledge in fitness, and various martial arts techniques.
Born and raised in Peoria, Arizona, Bryan was always fascinated with the Kung Fu movies of the 70s. It helped him cope with the bullying that he experienced from other kids who labeled him weird. It is this passion that drove him to a Karate Dojo in 1998 and he has never looked back. Committed to his career, he not only worked on his physical fitness and flexibility but also built his confidence and self-esteem.
Bryan holds a second-degree black belt in Kempo Karate, a master's level in Shaolin Kung Fu, and in Chen Style Tai Chi, a purple belt in Jiu-Jitsu, and a certification in Yoga. In addition, he has fought professionally in MMA and Muay Thai Kickboxing. Drawing inspiration from his experience, he hopes to touch many lives and support other athletes through any obstacles until they are able to exceed their standards. Being a coach is not all about offering good training, Bryan patiently listens to his trainees’ concerns, connects close with them, learns their weaknesses and strengths, and empowers them to reach their full potential. He believes there’re a lot of opportunities in martial arts and is excited to pass his knowledge to the current and future generations. As a loyal, reliable, and resourceful trainer, he prides himself on his ability to motivate others to put in the work in all they do.
