He continued to improve his stand up game while practicing submission grappling in a time when not many were training mixed martial arts.
 
In 1999 Freddy decided to move to Seattle and train at the highly respected and world known Maurice Smith Kickboxing and Submission Center. Shortly after he began training at MSKSC, he was asked to train with and fight for the Maurice Smith amatuer fight team.  At this time Freddy began training with Maurice, Roman Roytberg, Tsuyoshi Kohsaka, Francisco Filho, Glaube Feitosa, Ivan Salaverry, Josh Barnett, Randy Couture, Nicholas Pettas, Mark Miller and many other world class fighters that would come to train with Maurice. He also continued to train with his fight team members; Tristan Wit, Scott Shaffer, Jenna "Bambi" Bertoncello, John Polakowski and others.

Jose Martinez

Assistant Striking Instructor

Jose started his martial arts journey with us on . He learns techniques very quickly and everyday he gets better at teaching those techniques to the students and fighters.

 

Year after year, Jose positioned himself as a student that wanted to truly excel and learn everything he could.  He enjoys helping students train and learn and he's usually the first to volunteer to hold pads for someone when they need it. 

 

Jose is especially liked by the kids in our Muay Thai-Gers program.  They seem to gravitate towards him and enjoy his classes.  He is friendly and helpful with all the members of our gym and is always willing to help everyone get better everyday.
