COVID-19

Hello I am Andrew Gin and I have been teaching self defense karate for over 25 years at Los Angeles Belvedere Park.

My hobbies include Martial arts, International traveling with 38 countries and counting, Snowboarding, Hard rock, Movies, Firearms and Cooking.

The best part about teaching is watching the spark in the student’s eyes when learning a new concept.

I left my job as a private sector managing stocks, bonds and options after working with Young Champions realizing working with children is more rewarding.

Hello my name is Mario Gonzalez and I started my training with Young Champions for 11 years.

I was then promoted to start as an assistant instructor to now having my own class and have been teaching karate with Young Champions for over a year.

The current locations I teach at are in San Bernardino and in Colton. On my spare time I enjoy watching movies and playing video games. One of my hobbies is collecting trading cards.

I have been teaching nonstop for 16years. I have a 2^nd degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do, 1^st degree in Hapkido and brown belt in Kung Fu. The locations I teach at are in Beaumont, Mentone and San Jacinto. Some of my hobbies include watching movies, listening to music and watching all sports. I am an animal lover! I would love to have a lot of animals like horses, cows, goats, exotics birds and fish.

 The best part about teaching is seeing the students improving in all areas academic, social and getting confidence in them.

I have been with YC for 4 years at the San Pedro – Cabrillo Beach location. I have been teaching martial arts in general for about 15 years. I have earned a black belt in Judo and in Karate. I have trained in Krav-maga, Tae Kwon Do, BJJ, boxing and Mix Martial Arts.

 I enjoy playing golf and going to the gym because these two activities allow me the opportunity to make new friends. I’m currently on a mission to become more IT knowledgeable from the back and front end.

 For me the best part about teaching is to see my students realize that they can learn the self-defense techniques we teach them and that they can do pushups when they thought they couldn’t. Their self-confidence and esteem grows with every session! I also love seeing my students’ faces light up at the tournaments when they do well and be awarded with a trophy or medal, which makes it all worthwhile. Something else I like about being a karate instructor with YC is when my students are promoted to full black belts, they choose to come back and be my assistants. I currently have 5 black belts who assist me, they do such a great job!

 On a more personal level, I am a part-time business administration instructor at Nobel University. I have earned a Bachelor and MBA. I am a licensed real estate professional and also work in the real estate industry. Early on in my martial arts career I worked as an executive protection specialist, this was something I enjoyed very much!!
