About the Instructor
Bo is a former I-Power Gymnastics NINJA Program Director and brings 40+ years of Martial Arts practice and teaching experience to create an outstanding physical, mental, and emotional fitness program.
Arts4Hope Founder and KineOasis co-Founder, Bo is a Filmmaker and a Martial Arts Educator. He has accumulated 40+ years of practice and 20+ years of instructing Martial Arts at different levels and ages.
He started Okinawan Goju-Ryu at the age of 13, became one of the Founders of the first Romanian Martial Arts Federation, and later an Aikido Instructor with the Romanian Aikido Federation under Dan Ionescu Shihan.
He founded The Grasshoppers Club and runs his Martial Arts program as a hybrid between in-person classes and an online community.
Over the years, Bo has expanded his movement vocabulary to incorporate everything useful and practical for achieving and maintaining a healthy mind inside a healthy body.
After years of practice and exploration, Bo shifted focus from the ritualistic and often unilateral nature of traditional martial arts training to researching and incorporating teaching methodologies across various Martial Arts styles, with the goal to support a Developmental, Enhancement, Performance, and Recovery Movement-based Program for all ages.
While still practical from a “martial” perspective, Bo’s classes are adapted to a modern society that demands mental and emotional resilience, critical thinking, and teamwork. Mutual Respect is at the core of this practice.
Bo’s open invitation to everyone is to Re-THINK Martial Arts, and his favorite quote is “A teacher is a student who teaches in order to continue his study” (Mochizuki Minoru Sensei)
