Instructor development
Martial arts instructor training
Professor Manny Galvan trains martial arts instructors to become better teachers, better leaders and better mentors for their students. Instructors who complete the training receive an instructor certificate.
Why is a great martial artist not always a great instructor?
“After decades in martial arts, I’ve learned that being a great martial artist and being a great instructor are two different things. My goal is to help instructors become better teachers, better leaders, and better mentors for their students.”
Professor Manny owns Galvan’s Martial Arts, where he is Head Master, and directs its Gracie Humaitá Jiu-Jitsu program. Over the years he has developed instructors and built competitive programs.
Help for school owners
Professor Manny also helps martial arts schools build strong teaching systems, curriculum, programs and leadership teams.
How long is instructor training, and what does it cost?
Instructor training runs two 8-hour days, usually Saturday and Sunday from 9 am to 6 pm. Pricing depends on your program, so contact Professor Manny and he will send pricing for what you have planned.
