My personal mantra:
“The size of your success is measured by the strength of your desire; the size of your dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way.” -Robert Kiyosaki

My training style is:
Motivational and Energetic

My why:
I love boxing because it makes me feel strong and powerful and most of all happy. The learning process of boxing has made me fall in love with it, the way you have to think fast, move fast, and have the knowledge to absorb information and use it in the ring or on the bag. Every time I put my wraps and gloves on I feel a sense of confidence not only because boxing makes me feel strong but because I know it will challenge me to be a better athlete and person.

What gives me my fighting spirit:
I want to help people feel confident no matter what level they are on when it comes to boxing. I want people to leave the gym feeling like they accomplished something. Knowing that I can make people feel confident or happy gives me all the joy in the world.

Emily

Emily is originally from Detroit, Michigan but now calls Dayton home as she pursues degrees in communication and human rights at the University of Dayton.

She started boxing/kickboxing when she was 13 by going to classes with her mom and made it her goal then to one day be a trainer.

My personal mantra:
"People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel" -Maya Angelou (This applies perfectly to both life in general and to being a trainer!)

My training style is:
Energetic and Motivational

My why:
I box for a fun and safe stress outlet, to practice self confidence and discipline, to be apart of a community, and to learn what it means to fight for myself and what I believe in.

What gives me my fighting spirit:
The desire to personally be and help others to be the best versions of ourselves.

My personal mantra:
“Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.” —Maya Angelou.

His family, students, and TITLE members. Rudy's family has always been a rock in his life. He frequently draws inspiration and perseverance from their love and support. His students are a constant reminder to grow every day and to always give everything his all. Last but not least, the members at TITLE.

Never give up, and no matter what adversities you face, keep pushing.

Amanda

Amanda is originally from Florida. She moved to Ohio in 2001. Previously serving in the Air Force as a flight medic, she understands not only the importance of discipline, but also leading a healthy lifestyle. She is currently working on her Bachelor’s degree in Business and has dreams of opening her own gym one day. She began boxing around the age of 20, and at 24 began to study the art of Muay Thai and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, under Jeff Brown at the Brown Institute of Martial Arts. She loves martial arts as well as teaching it to others and she enjoys inspiring others and pushing them to achieve their fitness goals.

My personal mantra:
If it doesn’t challenge you it doesn’t change you. Push beyond what is comfortable, if you don’t there will be no growth.

My training style is:
Energetic

My why:
I fell in love with boxing and Muay Thai kickboxing in my early 20’s and have been doing it ever since. I came to Title to try a class and absolutely loved the Power Hour, as well as the energy and atmosphere of the club, so I thought it would be a good fit to share my love of the sport with others.

What gives me my fighting spirit:
I know that I can be either my greatest opponent or greatest motivator, so every day I try to focus on being a motivator for myself, to push to do better than I did the day before.
