Michael Karam
Hi, I’m Michael Karam. A 1st deg. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Blackbelt and Head Instructor of MK Martial Arts. I have been training martial arts my entire life. When I was a young child, I knew this was something I wanted to do forever. That passion early in my life led me on a search of multiple styles of training. From Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido in my preteens, to scholastic and Olympic wrestling in my teens and early twenties. In 2010, I finally found the most affective arts on earth to complete my training, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Kickboxing. After the first lesson, my world of what I thought was most efficient form of martial arts to defend yourself had completely changed. I dedicate the last 14 years to learning from all the best minds in our art and I look forward to sharing that knowledge with you. During these years of training, I’ve tested myself in all fields of competition; from applying my skill in true self defense situations on the street, organized grappling tournaments, to stepping into the MMA cage in the amateur and professional circuit against highly skilled challengers.
