Ramsey Veitch, Sensei, has been involved with the martial arts since he was a child and has been training consistently for 20 years. The Sensei possesses a deep passion and understanding of the martial arts and devotes much of his time to them. Sensei trains regularly and is a Purple Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), Firearms / Weapons Tactics / Self-Defense Instructor in the TRICOM system learning under the tutelage of Former Navy SEAL Kenny Bigbee Jr and Tuhon Jared Wihongi (FMA Instructor). He has earned multiple black belts in arts such as Aikido, Kempo, Iai and Ken-Jutsu, Japanese Jujutsu and has studied the other arts of Krav Maga, Muay Thai, Aiki-Jujutsu, and Kobudo (Okinawan Weapons). Having trained in Japan and around the USA, Sensei is very adept with standards of training and customary traditions while creating and maintaining his own style.
Growing up in Allentown, PA and the Lehigh Valley, Sensei loves spending time with his wife and friends, teaching martial arts, and works in healthcare. Sensei lives an active lifestyle as he is constantly on the move and enjoys an array of other activities such as exercising, disc golf, volleyball, camping, skiing, clay shooting, biking, hiking, and mentally challenging games. The Sensei simply wants to inspire others to live an active, complete and satisfying life with confidence and happiness.
Sensei is dedicated to his students and wants nothing more than to make them great martial artists. Whether one or a dozen students show up, he trains them all the same. Every student gets attention and personalized training depending on their goals. He is very dedicated to upholding certain standards of training to promote perfection.
I believe the martial arts are not only beautiful and a great workout, but practical for every day life. From staying organized and disciplined to reaching your goals with a warrior mindset all the way up to life-saving self-defense application. They should be affordable and available to everyone willing to put in the work. There must be an immense amount of mutual respect for both the students and the instructors. Loyalty and honor are not things you ask for; instead, they are earned. Community and trust is everything. Ego’s must leave through the door and humility must take hold. Training should be intense enough to see improvement as well as feeling like your improving. I continuously train various other martial arts to supplement my skillset and to pass on to my students. Train hard my friends and never give up because the end results are amazing!
