Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Becca’s athletic journey began in childhood, marked by her incredibly strong work ethic. Introduced to the martial arts when her daughter started training, she initially gravitated toward kickboxing and Muay Thai. Soon after, however, she immersed herself in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and MMA, ultimately turning her passion into a profession by teaching at the academy.
Driven to test her skills, Becca achieved a notable 4-1 record in amateur kickboxing and Muay Thai. In 2006, she made a significant leap into professional MMA. Becca holds the distinction of being the first woman to compete in King of the Cage Canada, boasting an impressive 2-0 professional record. Additionally, in 2009, just under 20 years ago, she earned the rank of Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, becoming only the second Canadian female to have done so at the time.
Mike is a dedicated lifelong martial artist committed to sharing his passion and expertise with his students. Training since his early teens, he has extensive expertise in disciplines such as Shotokan Karate, Jun Fan Gung Fu, Filipino Martial Arts, Combat Submission Wrestling and Muay Thai Kickboxing, and brings a wealth of diverse knowledge to his instruction. In 2007, over a decade and a half, Mike achieved the prestigious rank of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Black Belt from his Nova União teacher, Wagnney Fabiano.
Affiliated with Straight Blast Gym since 2003, Mike and his wife, Becca, owned and operated a successful martial arts school in Kingston, Ontario for over 23 years. In 2018, they returned from international travels with the goal of using their extensive experience to create the ultimate jiu-jitsu training facility. They initially settled in the Okanagan Valley and immediately began sharing their knowledge with the vibrant community at Pacific Top Team Vernon. Simultaneously, they began formulating a plan to create their new facility in Alberta.
With Mike’s wealth of experience, commitment to growth, and a warm, inclusive teaching approach, you can trust that you’re in the best hands when you train at Straight Blast Gym Calgary.
