01 Bangkok → Irvine
Built in Bangkok.
Coached in Irvine.
Seven years into the sport, Nick's path runs through Bangkok, Thailand, where he lived, trained and fought out of FA Group — one of the city's most respected clinch-heavy gyms.
That experience shapes everything he teaches: real technique, real conditioning and respect for Muay Thai's roots. The standard is simple — show up, put in the work, and get better.
