Adrian is the current USKA Kumite Champion, has been inducted into 2 Martial Arts Halls of Fame including the United States Karate Alliance Hall of Fame, and he has been the top ranked fighter for over eight years running.<\/p>\n

Adrian started his Martial Arts training in March of 1988 at the young age of 3 under his father Master Juan Galvan. I guess you could say he was born into it; Adrian didn’t go to daycare -instead he was at his father’s dojo always in the martial arts atmosphere.<\/p>\n

While Adrian continues to train under his father & now helps in running the school, he also trains under Sensei Tom Pisut. Adrian also attends seminars & has had the chance to train with Matt Hughes, Joe Lewis, Fumio Demura, George Kotaka, C. Bruce Heilman, Hanshi Toby Cooling, Shihan Duessel, and Paul Talamantez.<\/p>\n

Adrian loves tournaments & thanks his dad for the exposure to them at such a young age. Martial Arts – as well as competition – has really helped him grow into the person he is today. Adrian has over 1000 Awards as he has competed throughout the nation as well as internationally.<\/p>\n
