HIGHLY decorated marine and former police officer, Use of Force Expert, Danny Lane is incredibly accomplished in martial arts and an honor to learn under! Danny has done films with Chuck Norris, holds his belt under him but was also well known and respected by Joe Lewis and so many throughout his association.
So cool and such a blessing to get to come to places like this and train with legends like these!

Always such an honor to train with this remarkable man. Started the day off amazingly right with the man, the myth, the legend…

Much needed gym time working in with and ._ in Culver City. Great class. Whether you’re training to fight or just to enjoy the movement, having legit coaches that know what they’re doing is crazy important. … and it makes it way more fun. 😉🥊

So this made for an interesting surprise in my day. A small crew came out filming for an upcoming show on TLC. They asked to record me shadowboxing to have for B-Roll in the film where they saw me between sets. Oh my goodness. 🤪

On a recent road trip, I was listening through the Art of War. Not a new title to me but was the first time I was viewing it, dissecting it, and translating its concepts in a biblical context.
Some will scroll past this like “what is this chick even talking about?”
Some others are about to peel back some layers on warfare that just might reshape your faith walk and how you view life’s battles.
Be more cunning than your adversary.
Be more savvy in the art of warfare than those who’d use it to kill, steal, and destroy.
“Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong. Do everything in love.”
1 Corinthians 16:13-14 NIV

Let's be real. I didn't grow up as an athlete. I didn't come up eating the best foods (however, I did enjoy plenty of Southern classics) and I didn't grow up in fitness. I grew up on the opposite side of the tracks where sickness and disease were the norm. Obesity and severe depression were family affairs and the prospect of brighter days seemed more a fairy tale than a bankable reality. Weighing in at over 200 pounds after having my kids and already wrestling with several chronic health problems, I knew something had to change - I needed to change.
Fast forward several years and I am now stronger and healthier in my 30's than I ever was in my teens and 20's and determined to roll into my 40's even better than I came into my 30's - a journey I'm ever eager to continue on with you. Since 2012, I've reversed all previous health conditions through diet and lifestyle transformations that I now couldn't imagine parting from; I've gone from a 16/18 to a size 2 and have gone from hardly being able to do knee tucks off the side of my bed to bringing home bronze and silver medals from the WAKO USA National Kickboxing Championships.
I've had the blessing and honor of training with the best in kickboxing - from Joe Lewis Fighting Systems President, Phil Maldonato, to the U.S. Olympic Kickboxing Team, WAKO Team USA. I count it a huge joy to be able to bring that training to my clients in a way that allows them to grow in the sport while reaching their health and wellness goals. I offer my clients a dynamic approach to training that gets results in a way that's fun and engaging. Being that I deeply adore working one on one with my clients and meeting them where they're at, I love that I now get to selectively offer my time to the right clients with whom I can enjoy the journey, helping them to lose weight but to also gain much more in terms of quality of life.
