Everyday Martial Artist Jamie Seabrook – American Kenpo – Ep195
This week, we welcome an extraordinary martial artist and academic, Jamie Seabrook. Jamie has been training in Kenpo Karate since 1985 and holds the impressive rank of 9th-degree black belt. His martial arts journey doesn’t stop there:
- He earned his black belt in Modern Arnis under Grandmaster Remy Presas in 1991.
- Achieved a Black Sash in Dragon Kung Fu under Master Paul Chau.
- Holds a Blue Belt in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu.
Since 1995, Jamie has run his own martial arts school in London, Ontario. With classes seven days a week and an international black belt class every Thursday evening, he teaches students from various lineages across the globe. He also travels to teach seminars regionally, nationally, and internationally.
Beyond teaching and training, Jamie has authored two martial arts books, further sharing his knowledge and passion with the community.
Outside of martial arts, Jamie is equally accomplished. He’s a husband, father of two, and an academic powerhouse. In 2013, he earned his PhD in Sociology and is now a full professor in the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Western University.
Please join me in welcoming the multi-talented and inspiring Jamie Seabrook!
