MY FIGHTING EXPERIENCE
My name is Bao, I have been training Martial Arts for 30 years and counting. I started with Tae Kwon Do as a young lad and soon ventured into muay thai. In as early as 3 months of training, I had my first amateur fight, and thus began a journey that forever changed my life.
I have a combined total of 18 competitive fights with 6 professional fights in Thailand. I have trained at renowned gyms including Canada’s TKO Fighting Arts, and Thailand’s Kiatphontip Gym. I’ve been to Thailand on 4 different occasions, twice for an extended period of time where I lived, eat, and trained alongside world class fighters and coaches. Some names include Jompop Kiatphontip, Rob Storey, Bao Samingprai and Bryce Krause. The training sessions in Thailand were grueling at 2 sessions a day, with each session being 3 hours long in the heat.
MY COACHING EXPERIENCE
As an accomplished coach of 10 years, my athletes have won provincial and national belts as well as event tournament titles. I train athletes of all ages and gender and have champions in a variety of categories including kids, females, adults, and teens.

WHAT I WANT FOR MY STUDENTS
You are more than just a client, and I am more than just a trainer. I’m your personal coach, and you are my student. Which means I will be striving to bring the best out of you by first finding out your goals and aspiration, and then helping you achieve them. Muay thai can be a scary sport if you are starting off for the time, it helps to have a personal coach guide you through the process at the start. With a personal coach, you can 4x your rate of progression and ensure that you are starting your muay thai journey with a solid base and a strong understanding of the fundamentals. Personal training is also a great stepping stone before jumping into bigger classes, which can be quite intidmidating.

In 2014, I found Legacy Fight Club and met Legacy’s founder, Bao. The club was just starting with a handful of members at the time. I had the privilege of getting high-level Muay Thai instruction from Coach Bao, and working with him took my game to the next level.
10 years later, and I’m still training at Legacy and am so proud of how far the club has come. From a small group of young enthusiasts to a giant community of like minded athletes striving to grow and better themselves each day. Now here I am taking on the role of trainer. I am passionate about martial arts and has witnessed the positive effect it can have on one's life. Martial arts has prepared me for the real battles of life: the loss of loved ones, getting sick and injured, and facing adversity outside of the gym. Through martial arts, I’ve gained the strength and confidence to overcome challenges in my life, and to me, that’s the greatest benefit.
My goal as a trainer is to bring people up so they can be the best versions of themselves and face the challenges of their lives with confidence. I want to have fun together exploring Muay Thai, boxing, and kickboxing, while developing your own personal style. If my philosophy resonates,
I would love to work with you to achieve your goals and grow together.

I started training at Legacy Fight Club four+ years ago thanks to years of convincing by my mom, Coach Shelley. At first I was skeptical of how punching and getting punched had become her definition of fun, but it soon became the best part of my day, every single day.
As a coach, I am well-versed in a variety of modalities, and can help you reach your goals through Muay Thai, strength and conditioning, and HIIT. My approach to teaching Muay Thai prioritizes the development of a strong technical foundation by attentively teaching the fundamentals of the sport, with speed and power building with confidence and time.
Since my first day at Legacy, my passion for Muay Thai has only grown. This year, I won my first kickboxing fight under WAKO, and I spent time training in Thailand- twice daily, under the instruction of the coaches of world-class fighters. Throughout big moves, my passion has moved with me, as I have trained at multiple high-level gyms in Ontario and British Columbia. Now back at the place where it all started, I am excited to share my passion through coaching, in hopes that I can inspire in you the same sense of empowerment that the sport brings me.
