ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Eric Ziegler, and I’ve been practicing martial arts for nearly a decade. In 2019, my life took a sudden and unexpected turn. I went from being a healthy martial artist to facing a life-threatening situation that required an urgent organ transplant.

The recovery process taught me the true power of adaptability and the vital role martial arts can play in improving both physical and mental well-being. It was during this challenging time that I realized martial arts isn't just about physical strength or flashy techniques; it's about becoming the best version of yourself, no matter your starting point.

Inspired by my own recovery, I created Elevate Martial Arts Wellness. This program is designed to be accessible to everyone, with a specific program focused on seniors. Our holistic approach integrates gentle martial arts techniques, cultural enrichment, and community engagement to foster an environment where participants can thrive.
